LG Optimus 2X - User Reviews

  • Dont. It will only make your device so slow you wanna smash it.

  • Don't update to ICS. It will make the phone unbearably slow. I am talking 20 second delays here, on a phone with no additional apps installed.

  • I flashed ICS on this phone only to realise how incredibly slow it became especially after Play Services got auto-installed. I used SmartFlash from xda plus a ROM image I found on a internet forum to go back to GB. Every flash wiped all data but didn't have anything important in there....

  • ICS soo lagg.. better GB in term of performance.. If u still want ICS just search xdaforum find P990 All In One Toolkit Good Luck

  • You can do this...I have lg p990 India ....I have downgrade my lg p990

  • I have one that shipped with Gingerbread. It's an Australian Band P990H. Wondering if anyone knows where to get an official LG P990 Ice Cream Sandwich update from?

  • Has anybody had any luck with the official LG Mobile Support Tool when upgrading to ICS?

  • i have this phone ......but i need to know that any new android updates are there for this phone .it does not support some apps and games which are inportant.......so say something....plzz reply

  • i had it and sold it to my friend an android developer and he says he is developing on it better than a galaxy note 3 :D nothing changed also battery from the begining when i bought it from holland in 2011 also falls too much and he says collects battery - back cover and starting again (y)

  • This was a mistake and meant for the "T-Mobile" version of this phone.

  • Canadian users beware ----- Although companies may advertise this phone will work on Rogers networks, it does not support the same 4g bands and your phone will be limited to 2g service through hardware stipulations. DO NOT. I repeat. DO NOT buy this cellphone if you are a Canadian resident using Rogers/AT&T networks. This phone is also limited to Android 2. A strong phone otherwise with a great CPU and Nvidia technologies built in.

  • It is an outdated phone. I used it 5 years back. It was nice phone though, the first with dual core processor. Right after this phone was released, Samsung released its legendary Note2.

  • buy at person which already custom to cynogenmod 7.. sim cannot detect.. PC also.. its just show charging.. how to make its stock.. pls help..

  • I'm about to move from this phone to a newer one and felt I needed to write a little comment about it. This phone served me faithfully for nearly 5 FREAKING YEARS, and it dropped countless times, shrugged it all off and kept working fine. Nowadays though it keeps restarting on it's own, plus I need a more powerful one for work. Otherwise ? I'd probably still be rocking it. It really was an excellent product, extremely powerful when it came out, good functionality, good everything in fact, except the front camera, but those are shit on every phone anyway. RIP, you served me well.

  • the gingerbread stock rom work well until it updated to ics, it's become laggy and battery hungry i want to revert back to gingerbread stock rom, but there's no longer available >_>

  • Just flash cyanogenmod 7 and it is faster than the other phones dise days

  • best phone i have ever used

  • My phone heats up this days just like yours how did u resolve yours bcos i want to do same to mine. Thanks and anybody with better idea let me know pls

  • was once good, now obsolete.

  • i have used this phone like 3 years it worked great i never used any custom rom other then mine builds, they worked pretty awesome this is 1 of the best phone that can be used for development.but mobile is work not proprely becaucs mobile is hung some time..

  • This phone was amazing when it came out. Now its lacking in RAM Extremely laggy

  • Which stock version was buggy?

  • i have used this phone like 3 years it worked great i never used any custom rom other then mine builds, they worked pretty awesome this is 1 of the best phone that can be used for development.

  • most bad phone in worid coz small ram

  • Nope, my P990 reboots or turns off without attached to the charger. It did it multiple times directly infront of me.

  • I tried many custom ROM-s for my 2x, and every single was buggy, including the stock one. Now I'm still on stock ICS, but optimized and modded one - DjangoManouche X - and it finaly works as it should. Unfortunately, I didn't find any JB bug-free and stable build. It's shame that LG is that bad with providing software upgrades.

  • No it can be upgraded beyong ics 4.0.4. Advice for all lg 2x users. Change your charger because bundle one is crap and it's because of charger you experience reboots. It's since begining and nobody even bother to check charger, NOBODY!!! install juice defender ultimate and disable refresh on all apps in custom mode it will increase your battery for about 40 hours idle but most of all install custom rom. This phone can work better with custom rom based on kitkat but the main problem of this device is cortex a9 which is totaly crap, all a9 is crap

  • Anytime am using my phone just went off and reboot back or when i on my data ,the phone wil off and on automatically..i hav restore my phone twice but no stop. Why

  • My LG Optimus 2X has been getting very hot.It has got up to 45 degrees and feels very hot in my hand.During charge, it was very hot, even when after shutdowned and sometimes when it is unplugged too. Is it normal? I am confused about this.

  • can it be upgraded beyond 4.0.4 ics or not ???

  • CM7.2 is old , Use "CivZ-Multi_Flex 3" with "kawasaki kernel M1" in "NewBL" , for my experience it's the best stable ROM + Kernel .

  • I upgraded my phone to ICS 4.0.4, First the phone was constantly restarting. THE SOLUTION, i googled a startup manager apk. So i Used it to prevent some apps from starting when the Phone boots. Besides, i manually visit apps settings in the Settings menu to stop some apps. U can also do a great help to your phone by Removing some apps like facebook, twitter, if you dont frequently use them. The Junks your memory.

  • good and looking is very good

  • Download MinFreeManager Requires ROOT Allocate User defined amount of RAM to be kept free Use the settings below I use the above settings on CM7.2 & it works great

  • You may try RAM Expander on Play store. But it requires root.

  • The phone is great, you only need to upload custom Rom and kernel. My phone does Antutu of 11144 points.

  • If you dont like the LG skin, then dont use it. Stock LG phone was ok - nothing too bad Installing Cyanogenmod 7.2 is the best thing you can do to this unit - I still use it daily I've got Runkeeper, Whatsapp, GOSMS, default launcher as well as the other default apps and it still works fine. MinMemoryManager allows me to constantly have (user defined) 100MB RAM free to avoid lag. Unnoffical Jellybean (TonyP 1.04 with Kowalski Kernel) runs ok too, although there feels like more emphasis on performance of the OS rather than the apps - so i switched back. Have yet to flash a KitKat ROM

  • can u please, send a link

  • The word "crap" is the best description for this phone. It's very slow, lagging. May unexpectedly reboot. User experience - forget it. And watch your ears when plugged earphones as this shitty device will not automatically reduce the volume. Do not recommend to buy it to anyone. I'm so disappointed that I would never buy any LG device no matter it would be a TV or a washing machine.

  • You can upgrade to the official 4.0.4 android version, i have greenify on it...

  • please where did i found the radio on my lg optimus 2x

  • Look for Cyanogen

  • i have used this phone for aout a month now and it freeze alot even a call comes in it hard to answer, the speakers and go off at times u cant even listen to music. how can i change te rom by myself so i can enjoy this phone

  • how can i upgrade the OS? to icecream? pls advice. thank you.

  • not b/g/n/ wifi only b

  • battery saver. for full option need root.

  • But now Greenify is only avaible for android v.4.0+... :( I also have the P990 and I don`t know how to improve my RAM, I installed Clean Master, but it's not enought... Do you know some better app? Thanks!

  • Agree!

  • For low RAM issue, use Greenify app from the market. Will give some respite.

  • this Phone has One Major issue, witch is Lack of RAM , now I am using PA JB roms and now this phone is in max use. try it if u like . but Still don't use FB app it will slow down your phone for sure.

  • hi dude..im using this phone for quite long I think..i know ur prob..ur phone slow and so what ever..but mine quite fast after I done rooting and flash other rom which is not the original rom..i am using PA rom..for me the best and reliable..try it..worth it..

  • I do agree with you. It is the most f***ring slow smart phone in the world. I can't even pick up the call cos its very slow

  • in my case, it is getting better than previous. you try to update again.

  • Using this phone for more than 2 years now. Only way to get more from this phone is to root it. I will recommend Nova ICS build for the phone. Also install suitable launcher for you. Install swapper to get better speed "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details­?id=org.azasoft.free.swapper" Buy 3500mah battery for more juice.It comes with cover. "http://dx.com/p/replacement-3-7v-3500mah-b­attery-pack-with-back-case-for-lg-optimus-2x-p99­0-p993-91253" You can get this battery from your local ebay web.

  • Download any file manager.Check all backup folders on phone internal memory or SD card. Delete photos from there.

  • Hi I am using phone from long time but from 4 to 5 months when ever I restart the phone all my deleted pictures or videos appers back. How can I resolve this problem.

  • I said I used a new rom. Go ahead and get a life.

  • Phone is nice but lg software sucks! mobile works perfect on cyanogenmod 10.2 !! and speaker is a litlle bit bad but its ok. :) my grade fot this phone is 7.5/10 (for this budget ofc)

  • so true ...

  • Does this support Ice Cream Sandwich or KitKat?

  • My camera kept stopping unexpectedly, there was a button with like a head, volume lines and a line through them. I turned that off and it was fine.

  • I can't record a video, why? any answer?

  • Yes it has wifi.

  • my play store no longer connect and also my whatsapp messages don't send any help ?

  • my play store no longer connect and also my whatsapp messages don't send any help ?

  • Does the phone has wifi?

  • base on my exp,this phone actually is a good phone but than the kernel+the software is the worst..the hardware quite a good and quality hardware they got..so I already rooted my phone and use the custom rom which is the Paranoid Android by tonyp..my phone go smooth with no lag and can do overclock..

  • just clean the camera lens

  • Go and install CM10.1 - tonyp - T-Build 05 Your hp will be like new hp with no bug.

  • Lol are you the owner of LG? This is the worst smartphone ever...

  • my browser isnt working why might this be ?

  • I've used this smartphone for year and a half. My experience was so bad that I decided not to buy anything else from LG or Android based system ever again. The agony of using this phone is hard to describe. I have to restart it every day if I want anything done and while doing that GPS has to be on while turning off and on, otherwise it won't work next time. Sometimes it is so slow that is impossible to answer a phone call. Don't accept this phone even as a present.

  • omg.....2.2.pity on u.forgot about 2.2 . 4.3 is out for o2x...search xda ..

  • All the pictures I snap with this phone is blur, can somebody help me out? I will be very greateful

  • How can i upgrade my Android version? mine is only 2.3.3

  • how i can upgrade to 4.4 ics jst tell me the details......

  • my lg optimus 2x is upgraded to ICS. how come yours is not? maybe there was something you missed during your upgrade.

  • Btw i could now play Modern Combat 4, NFS Most Wanted, The Amazing Spider-Man etc. Truly, without a single lag!

  • here's Paranoid Android's thread from xda- I'm using 2.6-13 build of the rom

  • bro Aj, which built u r using? wanna try out... can share? thx

  • I tried without success to upgrade to ICS 4.0...I ended up ruining my phone in the process. Please change your specs on this phone that it says it is NOT upgradeable! Also there are dangers going to the site to do it...my phone is ruined.

  • I hated LG too much because of this handset, it took years for the gingerbread update and now its ics wouldn't come here in our place, says gb is the latest version for my phone. It wasn't very excellent on gingerbread neither. It was decently performing but when I chose it over galaxy s2 I felt like I was cheated coz the s2 had jellybean and all the goodies coming in its way. However it was time that I had to move on and I rooted it and installed a custom made jellybean ROM, (ParanoidAndroid, that is) and all the hatred had come away. LOL Phone's benchmark tests significantly improved, so is it's performance. Extremely smooth and game performance has improved a big lot. Latest features like google now, new notifs center and multitasking. Everything's so good and new and fast, I felt that I could keep this phone for a while and enjoy jellybean without getting another phone. Give it a shot guys it's very worth it. Tegra 2's fast enough.

  • This phone is a piece of work... nothing posotive i can say about it. The keyboard doesnt work half the time. (Yes it pops up and allows you to press the keys but it does not actually input any text what so ever) it doesnt make calls when i press the dial button it just crashes, so i re open the dialer and re input the number i wish to call. Then once the phones so called "dual processor" finally catches up with what im doing the screen goes black MID CALL and i have no choice but to remove the battery to get it going again (which, yes intails completely restarting my phone) at which point i would like to text the person to tell them my phone shut down and it was not me hanging up, then the LG optimus 2x will not input the text. It will not update ANYTHING, everytime i restart the phone it attempys to update my apps which all fail (due to error 498). over all i hate this brick but im stuck in a contract with fido

  • its not working. Its saying device is at latest version.not able to update from 2.3 to 4.

  • This phone is great, everything is working just fine. excellent camera, easy typing, and it is fast. recommend

  • yes it s available from LG update tool since dec 2012.

  • its not mini sim

  • cm10.1 android 4.2.2 works well , but radio bands for china mainland ver v10r seem to battery power consuming too much

  • Same with me.

  • CM10.1 (Android 4.2.2) works excellent!

  • Does anyone updated to ICS through LG support tool in INDIA? ICS update not available.

  • no many differences between ics and jelly so its easy for lg to upgrade the older devises..

  • i expect the jelly bean 4.1 update.. lg dont let us down again..

  • lg i want the officialj elly bean upgrade for my phone....

  • lol

  • For all people with ICS problem, Go to XDA Developers's Optimus 2x forum - Andoid Developement. Download and install the ParanoidAndroid Rom as per the instructions in the forum and live in peace. Need to root it before.

  • this link can;t be opened

  • You should get your hands on cyanogenmod for this phone. Even the nightly versions of CM10.1 are much better then Stock ICS! and

  • those of you having problems after upgrading to ics and having problems. you should back up you data with titanium back up and then format the cash via clockwork mod recovery. this will solve all the problems.i know from experience..if you dont format it,you will have conflicts from the old os system and the new...

  • After update ICS, I have experienced only two problems: 1. Battery life became much worse. 2. When I plug in charger while the phone is locked, it suddenly sometimes freezes(need to put out battery). Also I dont have problems that people described below, except for battery life. (sorry for my bad english)

  • I updated my P990 with official ICS, it became quite slow. It shut down atleast once in a day & we have to pull out battery & reinsert the same to start the phone. I visited many times in service centre but did not get resolution.battery backup is major issue with this phone.

  • no more lg phones.after i upgrade my phone to ice cream my phone has many problems.and i dont see any update in the future uless the company suprises us.. and still dont see it.go for other company..

  • P990 ICS stock (no root). With no volume (volume totally down), multimedia volume 0, cam & video was silent (100% sure), no shutter sound. Now, for some unknown reason, shutter sound is always there. I'm sure the P990 phones home (to LG-owned servers) and auto-updates things without permission. Yes, I know I can delete the shutter WAV / OGG file, but my P990 is not rooted, and I don't want to root it.

  • When i updated to ICS, the phone started shutting off or restarting regularly. I 've done hard reset, I' ve also went for a service but the problem kept going on. I know that there are many other users who faced the same problem even with android 2.3... No solution yet.

  • be upgraded to a jelly bean lg do something

  • I have been using this phone from 1.5 years or so> the Gingerbread on this phone is bit slow but when i installed the custom rom with kowalski kernel i bet this phone is 1 of the best phones the only prob is the battery life But over all its a very nice phone if u root n update it to jelly bean :)

  • setting-> language & Input -> setting of the keyboard -> notification -> vibration (off)

  • My 2x became slow after updating to ICS. Pls lg look towards this problem in the next update.

  • i ve tried once with cyanogenmod 10 custom rom but i didnt have the playstore market after upgrading,because i didnt know that i should do sth to download it first and then trying to follw the instructions i blew it up and i had to take ik to the company and i had to pay either.after that i said no more experiments..

  • How do i update my lgp990 andriod software to 4.0. pls if u have updated urs pls gve me the procedure u used. Thanks in advance

  • No, there wont't be an update from LG. But you can use a custom rom like CyanogenMod or ParanoidAndroid to get JB on your LG 2X. I have installed it a few months ago and it works fantastic! (except the video-recording function, but they promised to fix it, so stay tuned about this -g-)

  • why LG don't have the update of jelly bean

  • i have official ICS and i can't root my phone using SuperOneClick and Unlock Root ...any one help me to root my phone....

  • lg company should inform the mobile owners if they can expect jelly bean update or not..lg is allways behind from other companies consern to updates and repeats that with the new models..thats why me and i imagine many owners of lg mobile phones will look other choices in the future.

  • I have had this phone for about a year, maybe a bit more. It is the worst phone I have ever had. The specs look great, but LG has taken a significant amount of ram and given it to the gpu, which serves no purpose and is not at all necessary. It is dead slow. I have just purchase a different phone to replace this piece of crap. My wife has the same problems with hers, and has just purchased a new phone as well. LG garbage. They like to cheap out. I will never buy LG crap again.

  • lg we want jelly bean dont let us down again..

  • Since i instoled Opera 404 works better with only few black screen or dieing

  • can we expect jelly bean??

  • try to use jelybean...rooting first become superuser

  • hi can any one kindly tell me hoe to turn off vibration while writing text messages....i m using android 4.1.1 on g2x.....

  • ics 4.0.4 kernel 2.6.39.4, works perfect... network problems resolved, speed is good, battery life is better.

  • after updated into 4.04 ics. its became worst phone speed is dead slow. automatic switch off. black screen. so many others issue. Please any one tell me if any solution is dere

  • after updated into 4.04 ics. its became worst phone speed is dead slow. automatic switch off. black screen. so many others issue. Please any one tell me if any solution is dere

  • Do not update your phone to ICS, This phone becomes sluggish and slow after the update. Also be aware that this phone overheats, it crashes alot and it reboots everything to stock after crash, deleting the apps and pictures inside the phone.

  • Yeah, even we got the official update. But still my Laptop (Windows 7) is not recognizing the LG Phone with the LG Driver software. Tried to root it via other sites suggestions. Nothing worked. LG Driver software is not at all recognizing the phone. Have to try with a machine with Windows XP to do the update

  • it was a beautiful.i used lgp990. this is beautiful handset

  • But not getting updated through PC Suit or LG Support tool.

  • Yes ICS has already come to LG 2X in India

  • I have been using this phone for an year and 2 months. It started giving trouble like freezing and auto restart etc so i flashed and installed custom rom cm10.1. bit then couldn't hear anything when in a call and microphone issues. then again installed cm 7. used well for a month and again the problems came. wiped cache and fixed permissions nothing works. useless.

  • Is there ICS for LG optimus 2X in India?

  • Ics update to Lg optimus 2x sucks!!! It is verry luggysh in multi-tasking, and when i was connected to power to charge it, he has reset to its factory presets!!! Ics 4.0.0 is the worst update for many brands like sanmsung n7000, like lg o2x...etx. we need Jelly Bean!

  • I have also same problem . . . .

  • Mobile to PC thru HDMI is not working after ICS update. Does anyone face the same problem ? Any solution ?

  • ICS is now available in Canada for the 990HN.

  • I found that the antenna/signal is not so good as an old Nokia 6300 or a Samsung Wave (1). That's strange because no review warned about that. For example, GSM Area review said: "LG Optimus One 2X showed good signal reception even in areas of poor coverage".

  • anybody know if the ics update is available in Canada or at least will be? If not, how about gingerbread?

  • Why hard resert? its safe to do it??

  • Thanks. But where to get it from?

  • rg: If you've just updated to ICS 4.04 and you're facing lag issues, you have to do a "hard reset" on the phone. **Just keep a backup of your important data or at least create one before as this operation will restore your phone's ROM to system defaults while keeping ICS 4.04 as your OS. It will not format your SD card, but it's always a good thing to make a backup beforehand.** Ready? Then go to Settings > Privacy > Factory data reset. Confirm it, wait a little and that's it. your phone should have got rid of most of the lag... (remember you have only about 350MB of user-availabe RAM)

  • Anyone who says that his/her Optimus 2X got screwed over, here is a fitting response from LG for them. "During the second quarter of 2012 upgrades will begin for the following smartphone models: the LG Optimus LTE, Prada phone by LG 3.0, the LG Optimus 2X, the LG Optimus Sol, the LG my Touch Q and the LG Eclipse. These upgrades will be followed by upgrades for the following smartphone models during the third quarter of 2012: the LG Optimus 3D, the LG Optimus Black, the LG Optimus Big, the LG Optimus Q2 and the LG Optimus EX." Hope you are happy now.

  • use smart flash tool

  • my device is getting stuk & hanging so many time n its 4.04 upgraded temple run also cant play in this smoothly, please tell me how can i increase speed of lg p990 mobile. thanks in advance

  • No it will not get JB update

  • does anyone knows if optimus 2x will ever update jelly bean or not;thanks...

  • agree with u in some points...

  • Have you ever tried to encode the video to ''.mp4'', usually ''.mp4'' works better on Android, as the player use MX Player is the best, one more thing, i do not know why else run a 1080p video on a smartphone with a resolution that is not even in 720p.

  • What is the available storage of the internal sd after the stock ICS uptade?

  • Battery life sucks.. even in stand by mode.....it last for maximum 7 hrs......

  • You don't know what you are talking about.

  • I have had this phone for several years now. First of all it all seemd fine, it looked grate at first, I have found that not only are LG phones very reliable but the amount of support you receive is outstanding. All in all I'm glad I finally got rid of this phone, it has been the worst phone I have had for a while now. I would highly recommend that you do not buy mobile phones from a company that makes refrigerators and ovens for a living, this is reflected in the long time it took for this Dual Core phone to receive an ICS update. And last but not least while developing apps for android and testing this using ADB I have noticed that LG has no idea how to make stable USB drivers for debugging which constantly crash and require you to reinstall them. Overall the phone has potential but it's let down by the huge amount of bloat ware which reflects in how slow it actually runs, for example even the ICS update is very very very slow and you constantly have to close apps and free RAM to make sure the phone runs smoothly. When will phone companies finally realise that we do not want their crappy, un-skilfully built, useless apps on our phones but would rather prefer a light weight system that doesn't require you to constantly free up RAM. NEVER EVER BUY AN LG PHONE. EVEN IF IT'S CHEAP, EVEN IF IT LOOKS GOOD ALWAYS GO FOR A DIFFERENT BRAND BECAUSE SOMEWHERE ALONG THE LINE YOU WILL BE DISAPPOINTED, EITHER BY THE VIRTUALLY IN EXISTENT SUPPORT YOU RECEIVE OR BY THE HUGE AMOUNT OF BLOAT WARE THAT SLOWS DOWN THE OPERATING SYSTEM.

  • I use the LGMobile Support Tool on my PC. It connects to the internet and checks for updates. I had earlier installed the v30a which I had got from xda developers. Yesterday, the Support tool flashed a message that an update to my phone was available. I connected my phone after installing usb drivers and the tool checked and found v30a ICS on my phone and said an update in the form of v30b was available. The download and update took about 1 hr 45 minutes. No data got deleted. Though I had to root the phone again and install CWM.

  • Install cyanogenmod 7.1.0,rom stable and no bugs!!

  • Install cyanogenmod 7.1.0,rom stable and no bugs!!

  • ICS update for Europe Waiting for India now

  • the suggestion was for good battery backup since you wanted a new battery i don't have the problem you mentioned. I am happy on gingerbread... install temasek 135.4 CUSTOM ROM based on CM7 and install symbiosis kernel on top of it most stable,smooth performance,good battery life. dont install ICS or CM10 as yet since they have some bugs.besides ICS,CM10 has hardly few features that help in the real world usage

  • No, just ICS from LG, not JB. But this phone is going to get official CyanogenMod 10 which is based on JB

  • Will this device get jb???? If yes then plzz tell me when??? Plzzz reply me i m gonna buy this mobile.... thnx in advance.... :)

  • Can anyone tell me, when you play a song on this device, do both the speakers play???

  • I think that is rediculous that this "smartphone" cannot update to Icecream sandwich or jellybean? why only in one country can this be possible? grrr!

  • Hi Anu, I noticed that you said you have "faced"? Have you cleared this problem? If so, please tell me how did u clear it.

  • Even if the change the battery, what is the trade off, that the problem will disappear? Did u had the same problem?

  • Umm, the official ICS has leaked. You can install it from here. Please read the instructions and download or install. I'm enjoying this phone like never before. My antutu score is 8190 and quadrant is 4122.

  • Even I faced the same problem("Screen goes blank and I can't do anything till I won't take battery out and put again") 1 out of 8 times.

  • double the power only 700rs

  • ok lg is a horrible software developer (my opinion and many others ) but ics has leakd from lg so you have lg ui 3.0 witch is nice.. but also cm10 has been released for optimus2x. i would have burned mine if i had not rooted it. cm7 and cm10 have hardware acceleration but i dont think there will be a cm9 with hardware acceleration but you can use it anyway. i also spotted someone working on getting android 4.2 with some success . great hardware despite too low ram but i wont buy another lg phone (not even a single nivida product) unless all sources are out

  • Hi there, I am using this phone since a months, I brought a used phone from my friend whom might have used this phone for a year. From the day I brought this phone, I am not satisfied with the battery backup. When Wifi ON and Data OFF and on average usage, the battery stands only for 5 to 6 hours. Is this normal in this phone or there might be any problem with phone or battery? Please suggest me any solution, If I am supposed to buy a new battery , please suggest me a good battery that I can buy in ottawa, Canada. I also have one more query related to this phone, actually I am a new android user. My friend has installed a custom version of ICS 4.0 by Eaglesblood. When I spoke to few other friends, they asked to install CM10, I really dont know what it is all about. Can anyone tell me which custom version would suit best and its configuration and how to install a custom version of ROM. I also have one more problem with this phone since day 1, Whenever I talk calls , the phone screen goes blank. I tried pressing the power button and screeen many times, there is no response. I cant come back unless I remove and put the battery again. This does not happen all the times, it happens in 1 out of 5 calls. Is this a problem with phone or OS? Please suggest me something to get rid of it as it is really annoying. Thanks , awaiting some good views and replies.

  • I love my O2X. I got it for games, movies and internet and its tegra 2 HW acceleration helps a lot. Due to the ridiculous amount of ram the stock kernel is using I want to root it, but if someone could answer these questions for me that would be great: -Is there a custom kernel out there that keeps the tegra 2 HW acceleration? -Where is the best place to ask questions about this phone? Thanks

  • I love my o2x due to how well it can run any game and play hd movies. I want to put a custom rom on it but I've heard that cm7 doesn't support hardware accelleration. Is this true, and if so are there any out there that do support hardware accelleration? Thanks

  • You should probably delete and re-configure your Google account.

  • I can't download anythng frm my phone there is a problem with my google acc. Pls help me???

  • i hv lg p990 and i want to install ics in my ph ..so how can i install can you please help me..?? my email id is [email protected]

  • avoid this phone. can be unlocked only by paying for code.

  • v28e is a LG leak not official, maybe official release soon

  • u can get the ics zip file from xda devolopers by harsh (do only if u r an xpert user)

  • when ics will release in india??

  • Where is the official ICS ?

  • ICE CREAM SANDWICH is ready official for this device!V28E.Amazing rom!!

  • I've had this phone for about a year now. I bought it off Amazon.co.uk and took it back to South Africa. 4 days after getting the phone, I rooted and installed a custom ROM and kernel (Temasek's CM7 kang 135.3 FINAL, Etana's kernel ). The stock LG software was utter sh1te. Terrible battery life and general lagginess. Furthermore, LG lied about releasing an ICS update for this phone, so you are stuck with Android 2.2 unless you root. That said, if you are up to truly making this phone yours by rooting and installing a custom ROM, you will come to love this phone. The price is amazing, the performance is solid, and HDMI-out on a phone litterally blows peoples' minds. So there you have it. As stock, I'd rate the phone 5/10. rooted with a custom ROM, I give it a 9/10 (cuz nothing is perfect)

  • stop using skype or wifi when charging. thats all.

  • huh...its a phone with good specs....but camera usually hangs....its the worst thingg...

  • I'm using this phone from last January 2012. One day I used the skype video call over my home wi-fi network continuously over 40minutes and my battery went low. So I plugged it in to recharge and after few minutes phone heated up like I can fry an egg on its surface. Now my phone is always heating when I charge it, using wi-fi for long time, using network for long time and using skype. Can anyone tell me what is the problem please? What should I do?

  • Thanks for your replay. i tried the cm10 jb.nice though some bugs, it is awsom, as we got a working jb rom

  • CM10 released for optimus 2x buy Ricardo... finally a fully working jelly bean ROM(who cares about official ICS) new features: project butter face unlock full HD recording at 30fps with continuous autofocus etc.etc

  • Hey,we can't install ics with the source code.with the source code the developers can make custom roms.so we hav to wait until they build new roms

  • pls how to install ics on 2x step by step, already have the source code

  • lg is back!

  • And finally God heard our prayers ...lg has released the ICS source code for optimus 2x. our phone's life has extended a little bit... we can expect variety of ics rom from our great o2x devs

  • For the custom rom users, which gb rom do u think the best stable rom. and which is the best kernal, now I am using chukk norris x..

  • here is my take on mid range dual core android phones ie under 20000rs the phones available are 1>LG optimus 2X (2X) 2>Samsung Galaxy S Advance(SGA) 3>Sony Xperia Sola 4>HTC Desire X According to the release date 1>lg 2X has dual core nvedia tegra 2 processor since this phone was a flagship device in its heyday it comes with more bells & whistles (like HDMI port,8mp camera,1080p recording & playback) when compared to rest of the competition even though the processor is old it trashes samsung galaxy s2 in 3d graphics & gaming benchmarks according to samrtbench 2011games, it even has ips lcd which is found in high end phones like htc onex ,one x+,optimus 4X etc this phone is a gamer's phone affordable the only draw back is its battery life 2> SGA is a good phone well built its performance is similar to that of 2X but looses out in gaming department for normal casual usage this phone is no different than galaxy s2 the main draw back is its camera it has no zooming option otherwise it's a good phone 3>sony Xperia sola even this phone's performance is similar to SGA it has the same processor & chip set of SGA the main draw back is its subparr battery performance , no secondary camera & has ordinary s lcd display which is not bright or colorful enough 4>HTC desire x it is the new phone & the most expensive ofem all it is very well built houses a new snapdragon s4 processor But it lacks many features no secondary camera.No hd video recording this is because of old chipset & old gpu. even this phone has ordinary s lcd display & has the least performance ofem all so if i want to select from these phones i would select SGA or 2X (mainly SGA it has better battery)

  • It's a very good phone. But has some problems. lt can be the best phone ever but it lacks some features like 1. It should have continuous autofocus in video mode. 2.Should be upgradable to v4.x 3.should have active noise cancellation feature. 4.Should have stereo sound recordings during video recording. 5.Should have a ram of 1GB. 6.Should have a better battery life. Although it lacks those features/functionalities but it's a very good one

  • A di best phone life good fi true mad tunup..

  • I knew that the LG product, take me high again. Optimus 2x 4.0 update still did not take the phone.

  • What is the difference between LG OTPIMUS P990 and P990h ?

  • Horrible phone - I have a dual sim LG Optimus.It is a horrible phone. The battery can get drained multiple times a day. Controls are sluggish. The OS may hang at times. Support is not very good.

  • In the SW department, OB is better since it has official cm10 support but O2x is way better in HW. Choose O2x as soon as ICS will be released.

  • its a great phone awsome processing and multi tasking arm7 processor nvidia tegra 2 512 ram the only problerm is the heats up a lot and shut off sometimes due to excess heating or memory dump i would advice people who are using the 2x they should root their phone in an hands on experience its flying now better battery life smooth responce and great gameplay but now its been overtaken by 4x which better anyday because of the 1.5 processor tegra 3 and 1 gb ill be upgradeing to that phone in some time

  • im too using paranoidandroid jb n i think thats the best jb rom till date

  • im advising you to get lg optimus 2x because it is better than sony arc s

  • Phone is great. had it for a year. if you compare it to the SII or SIII, a lot of the tech in the 2x is still very comparable. Sure, the SIII is better, but it should be, its a new phone!! If LG didn't treat it like crap and gave it the ICS, it would greatly improve the phone and possibly beat SII.

  • Im not sure whether I should get the Xperia arc S or LG Optimus 2x. Please help me.... Urgent

  • yaa..i'm also usin custom 4.1.1 paranoid android...also miui...can u prefer some more roms with less bugs...

  • hav been using 4.1.1 jelly bean n this phone has become awesome, im loving my phone now, best phone for its price tag, just waiting for official ics update so that we get the drivers...

  • Mine is running on stock Android 2.3.4 . Runs Temple Run smoothly and some other high graphics games. I dont like it how the window animate too fast, therefore the transitions are not as smooth. Other than that, my phone sometimes freezes and stop responding. But overall, i like the performance of the phone, and i have not much problems wuth the phone.

  • I bought this phone a year ago (well 2 days less than a year ago) and I have had problems with it ever since. First I was running Android 2.2.2 and it was randomly rebooting, freezing and there was alleys lag present to. When i upgrade to official 2.3.4 version, reboots stopped, everything else is still there. But on top of that GPS is not working anymore. I will never buy any (not even a nail) if it comes from LG. This is almost worst phone I ever owned (Omnia1 being the worst smart phone due to Windows Mobile OS).

  • I wonder why these country specific upgrades are done. Just language?

  • Stopped waiting for official ics .now using custome rom 4.0.4.very smooth...

  • Lg India also confirm NO ICS update for P990.

  • we have news for ics on optimus 2x update??

  • Samsung is the best

  • I play Temple Run on my 2x with no lag. I am on stock gingerbread 2.3.4

  • Temple run works 100% perfect on this phone. I have LG optimus 2x p999 here in Canada. And it is a beast. I'm still running froyo 2.2.2 and the phone works like a champion. I have tested other dual core phones that are 1.5 ghz and should be faster at multitasking. But for some reason are not. LG did a superb job with the build quality. I tether for hours while charging and I run it hot I also talk on the phone play music while tethering and it still runs strong. I have dropped it twice on cement and it has not broke. The screen is true scratch resistant gorilla glass not that plastic imitation garbage found on galaxy Nexus and galaxy s phones. The only keeping thus phone from being the perfect device is the software. Believe me when I tell you. When this device gets ics with LG ui3.0 it will be unstoppable mark my words.

  • I use this phone for about a year. And it's great, some say that it's full of bugs, but I haven't seen any. The only drawback of this phone is that the ics update is very late. All in all it's amasing phone for great price.

  • Dear frens dont believe in fake commentators this is a nice phone with great looks

  • Hello guys, playing temple run in lg2x is it smooth? no lag? please reply my question. thanks in advance

  • I've had this phone since Feb. Nothing special about it.Nothing to complain except that for a period of time it was acting up (like freezing when dialing and not responding when pushing the "end" button. Then the problem resolved on its own or something. I don't have all the problems that some other users are experiencing. But nothing special about the phone. It seems to be lacking some of the good things that other phones have. The worst thing is that I'm with Wind in canada and theres still no update to the OS (currently 2.2). Now, I'm not a phone fanatic but it's nice to have updates. Anyone knows the Samsung Galaxy S4G compares to this? Is it a better phone than the LG? BTW, battery life can be greatly improved if you use a program like "battery defender". I went from 14 hours to 3 days (with very light use).

  • Yes, it supports. You can make video calls using skype without any issue.

  • tnx:)

  • Where the hell is ICS????????? LG never again!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Lg 4x is best

  • could anyone tell me, at now this device supporting skype video calls or not?

  • it verru goods i like that

  • I have a LG Optimus 2X and i´m glad to have him, it´s a very good smartphone, and now it´s coming the OS Android 4x to be updated. But if you want there´s a update by Cyanogenmod NovaHD_Rebuild_v1.0.3 it´s a unoficial os android 4.0.4 that you can do everything you can also make an overclock to 1.4 Ghz dual-core. It´s the first dual-core smartphone and i´m love it.

  • ICS=overhyped.

  • I have tried a Galaxy S3, and the 2X with 2.3.4 is better. PERIOD!

  • jelly bean???Only now they announced ICS wich means ics will be usable next year. At the time Jelly bean will be ready the lg would be obsolete by then....its easyer to believe S2 with Jelly than Lg 2x with ICS... This was my first and last LG product. Even know after the lousy support they give im not considering LG for a smart tv...no matter how good you buy it will become unsuported even under warranty!!!!!

  • take it to a phone service and tell them to change the thermal compound from the processor

  • lcd damig

  • update it from official lg website

  • Is there any fix for the overheating/rebooting issues ?

  • Been using for a year and 3 months.... still working very best condition...Totally worth every pennies of my money! Very capable in terms of SW pocessing and net surfing.. A very decent built quality phone.. i love my 2X ! LG 4X, will coming for you next week ^.^

  • wait! i'm a bit confused,between lg,samsung and htc. i have heard a lot of negative comments about htc's built,and its grip issues so a lot of unpleasing comments about it. makes me feel not so happy, plz can any one tell me wich is better? lg optimus 2x or htc desire s?? tnx:)

  • buy china phone

  • www.facebook.com/LGMobileSingapore/posts/1015109­8010297707 Confirmed ics coming soon lg 2x 3d black prada Lte

  • am planning to purchase dis cell phone...!!bt after saw dis comments am confuse really l.g is dumb.....!! please suggest mee which cell phone should i buy..

  • Sara .. I love htc one x too so do u want to go out with me

  • It works with skype video calling and it will soon upgrade with ICS.

  • EVERY owners have the right to show their protest against lg,they are still playing with d customers...as 2x is the world first dual core phone,and still in 2.3.4. Even galaxy y and pocket and phone like micromax aisha have 2.3.6... tho competitors are planning to upgrade to JB.... WHAT TO SAY...

  • Hi bumpkin users!!! Lg had said that they will give ics to this phone, so don't ever show your stupid comment at this page.

  • Relax bro,LG had confirmed that update for ICS will release soon.Don't spoil another buyer mood.Just wait... Perhaps they will announce for Jelly Bean after it.Who knows...

  • so what?

  • I Bought this phone because LG was saying they will update is product to ICS .... Never happened ! Too bad, i never touch a LG product of my life !! I bought now a S3 for 50$ of difference !

  • yes u are right, camera quality is poor

  • who cares??

  • Front cam does not work on Skype videocall on the 2X (with Android 2.3.4)

  • i love htc one x

  • I was a stupid to buy an LG optimus 2x in the 1st place. They 1st promise that they will upgrade the phone to android 4.0 thatswhy i bought this but they said wont do it now or never. So my advise is that please do not buy any LG products as they cant keep promise. Hell with LG.

  • yeah true it may have some faults but it is not that bad. Camera is good may be you have problem in the firmware or something. I had freezing probs and all but now i have rooted it. And backed up all apps and factory reset now working very well no glitches at all lol

  • my lg optimus 2x is verry nice about 8mp. is good camera verry clear and verry fast browsing to the internet verry speedy...... nice........

  • Its 8MP Camera is like hell. its of no use. Not even getting a picture clarity of 1.3 mp phones. Its wastage of money.Better go for other brands. I have already wasted my money.

  • is not good phone is very bat lg need only hit moneny peupel but no one buy

  • i want to buy it. but i see so many negative post. It doesn`t worth?

  • skype video doesnt work on the front facing camera.lg are a waste of time,you need ics to get the face to face camera working..unbelievable, optimus 2x p999 is as glitchy as hell & yes no ics upgrade...dont buy their products because no support

  • Some good news about ICS

  • Very poor battery, my usage is not much, still battery drains off quickly

  • No upgrade for Optimus 2x. NEVER EVER LG again. Bycott all lg products and will convince friends and relatives to stay away from this evil company.

  • I'm using this phone for 8 months now. Overall it is ok. Camera good, battery lasts a day with average usage. But sometimes the phone freezes, Restarts and some apps crash. Also loose signal etc. Good thing the battery is removable cause when it freezes even restart wont work have to remove and replace the battery again lol. I wish it was easy to update android os like others without going through so many steps like rooting and custom firmware etc.

  • The overall phone is compatible with others. My phone is preloaded with andriod 2.2 and there is no update at all. Won't buy LG again.

  • i don't like this phone. no ics. lesson learned. i'll stick away from lg from now on, i recommend just getting another phone like sola/xperia p the dual core experience for me isn't adequate even homescreen scrolling isn't smooth

  • Don't fool us, LG. The Xperia series from Sony like Arc, Neo, Ray with 'just' single core CPU and 'lame' Adeno GPU has received ICS update, why our O2X with dual core and Tegra GPU cannot support ICS? Please give us a reasonable answer !!

  • no ICS for Optimus 2X...http://www.gsmarena.com/2011_xperias_wont_g­et_jelly_bean_no_ics_for_optimus_2x_and_black-ne­ws-4570.php

  • This is the same type of e-mail i got when i asked them if they would upgrade the O2x from froyo to gingerbread. They are just not well informed.

  • LG support sucks. No software updates for O2x is outrageous.

  • ICS support in the Philippines is dead. The customer service representative from the CIC DEPARTMENT of LG Electronics Philippines told me that ... "Thank you for choosing LG! I understand you inquire about LGP990. Regarding ICS Update, I'm sorry to inform you but ICS is not supported by the unit. It is due to hardware's limitation. ICS requires tegra3 to perform then 2X is tegra 2." If this is really the case then the software developers at ZTE are much more competent than that of LGs because they were able to run ICS on ZTE Grand X

  • will O2X get WI-FI direct with ICS update?

  • Thanx man.

  • please guys i would request the users of lg optimus 2x to launch a complaint for not releasing the ics update for this phone as the company officials are just not concerned for the updates of this phone and whearas its competitors are already to enjoy jelly bean upgrades

  • Go for samsung. If u want latest updates then buy Nexus series phones.

  • I am planning to change my phone. I have shortlisted Optimus 2X, Xperia Ray and Xperia U. What do you suggest. External memory aint a problem for me. a good phone with decent battery and good performance is what I am looking for.

  • little bit hope from xda

  • Do not buy LG phones, you will not get any support or update to a newer version of Android OS.

  • YES! This smarphone supports VideoCall, if you have 3G data service, or using a wifi network. you can use apps as Skype to make calls or videocalls through internet connection.

  • Yes, using Skype and other apps. Don't worry, you will be able to videocall with your "significant other".

  • LG Optimus 2X GPS problems on Android 2.3.4 Fix: 1. enable GPS 2. switch off phone, then switch on (reboot) 3. turn on mobile data 4. go to Google Play, search: gpstest (and install, free) 5. keep the GPS "on" even if you don't use it

  • You can use the factory-installed Polaris Office (read Word/Excel). If you need more, buy Quick Office HD on Google Play (works on the 2X). If you just need a basic (free) text editor, there are quite a few on Google Play.

  • does LG Optimus 2X supports video call.

  • Only LG Canada is not updating to ICS.

  • ABOUT ICS UPDATE

  • Is there a document editor in this phone. I would like to know, because I´m getting this soon and I have problems with my Windows in my computer. So while the broblems are being solved I could write documents with this.

  • motorola atrix 2 vs lg optimus 2x which one is better ?

  • This is one of the best phone I have ever used. Excellent speed, camera quality.

  • Got updated to version 20i.will check performance.

  • Got Updated to 20i in india...nothing much difference in performance wise..but ICS we want... it can beat any phone..with proper software....please lg make some good software

  • one improvement I see is that the battery drain is slow when the phone is not in use(which is good) otherwise its the same

  • Good u trilling but man dats actually not funny...we all hope to receive such news from lg & it shld be soon...

  • just trlling!! LOL... hahaahah!adding some spice here!! its bored!

  • Hammer ur phone!! LOL

  • Guys any idea how stable is v20i in India, I want to upgrade but not sure, I can read that the Baseband has changed should be for good, but just want to know some reviews before I can upgrade. Thanks for any info....

  • This is the best phone I have ever had its so fast looks amazing camera is brilliant. This phone Is my life and would not trade it for an iPhone 4s

  • Any improvements, and are there any issues...

  • its already there but unlock after completing 2 world

  • its already there but unlock after completing 2 worid

  • hey people i just updated my phone in india, got a new version v20i baseband has changed to 20120327...but sad news is that its still 2.3.4 :(

  • How can i delete the software update? After i updated into 2.3.4 gingerbread, the problems started! Ain´t there a recovery? The Factory reset doesn´t work!

  • World 3 already there or came after completing world 2?

  • Same problem here. Does anybody knows how to fix the GPS problem? Please... I've tried everything (Hidden menu, gps.conf, root + gps fix, services.jar framework...) but nothing seems to work! My device: Lg-P990 V20s 2.3.4 Gingerbread. Please, i would appreciate any help you could give me...

  • ya iam played bubble shoot in this phone both 3 worlds i got 191 on 1,172 on-2,163 on-3 world.amazing game very addicted

  • Hi. My lg-p990 gps doesn´t work without wifi. Is this an Android 2.3.4 Bug?

  • Hi, Anyone played Bubble shoot Puzzle World 3 on this phone.I am getting only World 1 and World 2 stages.Have >160 score for both.

  • is 2.3 preinstalled in india. Thanks in advance.

  • The latest S/W version that I can see in India is 20h. R u seeing the same or its different. 20h is based on gingerbread with some tweaks in it. Ram is optimized but also some people have been facing issues with it. Incase u want to update visit the LG service store near you. Incase u can see a different s/w pls update it here. Hoping to receive the ICS soon.

  • Do yo have email or sms that you have not checked. The light is a notification thing. (unless yours if faulty.)

  • I'm using 2x. It's wonderfull but battery very bad

  • every one waiting for JB but O2x is still on GB...Pitty with my O2X

  • SOME of the guys speaking of 2x's speed after upating to gb....how ridiculous... jelly bean has come...still poor gingerbread..shame on u lg....

  • Maybe LG should just skip ICS for the LG O2x and go straight to JellyBean. That would be awesome.

  • now jelly bean is annouced when my poor optimus 2x getting ics please anybody tell me.

  • Hi, is there a new sw update available in india?? the sw update tool shows one but i am unable to update..can can one check this please and reply ?

  • I believe the Lg Optimus 2X is better then the Xperia U because it has better camera`s and mainly because of it's memory, that has 8 Gb of internal memory and the option of external memory cards (until 32 Gb), well the Xperia U only has 4 Gb of internal and no space for external, and also a better battery; but the pro of the "U" is that you can upgrade it's system to Android 4.0, unlike the 2X that only goes until 2.3 (2 "main" version behind). And I don't like the Neo V because it's bigger, doesn't have a processor as fast as the 2X (only one 1Ghz core, well this one has 2 1GHz core), has worse camera's, less internal memory (but the same external capacity) and smaller screen, but the Pro is that it can also be upgraded to 4.0 Android system. PS1: There are many other details that you could be interested in to, and it could be interesting to read a few reviews abou them, but at a general look this is about it! PS2: Sorry abou foolish english mistakes, I'm Brazilian!

  • Superb phone. coming from xperia neo v, this thing rocks. awesome clear and bright display(like it better than samoled,over saturated colors)Very fast UI after gingerbread update.Premium build quality unlike the plasticky Galaxy S2.Mind blowing games with superb graphics and fluid framerate like riptide gp,samurai vengeance,and a lot more(thanks to nvidia tegra2. Camera is very good but not great and video recording is somewhat dim but i'm not a camera person(ahaha).Only downside for me is below average battery life but it all comes down to the user.light to moderate use 1.5-2days. Heavy usage won't last a day.

  • Hi, Should I buy the Xperia U or Xperia Neo V or the LG Optimus 2X. I am looking for a reliable phone which has/will get ICS. Thanks

  • Hi, Should I buy the optimus 2x or the Xperia u or the Xperia Neo v?? I am looking for a reliable phone which preferably has/will get pics. Thanks

  • Hi, Should I buy the optimus 2x or the Xperia u or the Xperia Neo v?? I am looking for a reliable phone which preferably has/will get pics. Thanks

  • I planning to buy this phone and it will be my first android phone. i have read a lot of reviews about this device and i'm not yet a 100% sure about LG so I need some advice if LG phones are good specifically LG optimus 2x. Thanks

  • you said it, in India. Lg and nvidia still have not given tegra SoC drivers to devs ti make a normal ICS rom. STAY AWAY FROM LG

  • Is this phone good for 3d gaming like modern combat 3, nova 3, etc? Im thinking about buying 1 if this question is answered

  • I have been using this phone since last 6 months & no issues after the upgrade to GB. Battery life is not good but it is the case with almost all the Android phones...

  • Its a fantastic phone using for almost 6mnths in India, 1GB ram would be great for this phone to be Superb... Waiting for ICS from the time its released, hoping if Google also releases its nexus line in most of the countries through its play store. Come on LG, Android 4.1 is released & we have not yet tasted Android 4.0 Pull up your SOCKS or please hire some developers from the XDA forum, if your developers are not efficient enough to release the software on schedule as you promise always.

  • i have this phone, but my problem with this phone is why does my phone with it is locked the light will always appear?

  • anybody know exactly ics release date in india please tell me.

  • i have this phone, but my problem with this phone is why does my phone with it is locked the light will always appear?

  • LG Optimus 2x is better

  • when ics is comming in india for my optimus 2x?

  • LG Optimus 2x... I have this for almost a year, dropped it few times and still intact with no damages and works perfectly! It's my first android phone and just quite happy with it.

  • samsung advance for sure

  • It,s GOOD...................but needs to be better.

  • please give ur honest opinion!! which is better optimus 2x or samsung galaxy s advance?? except ics plz tellme which is better!!!!!! thanks!!!!!!

  • i am a moderate user like 1 hr games and 2 hrs of other uses [call , internet etc] now tell me!!

  • It depends on how you use the phone. If you are a heavy user that plays alot of games,it will depleat faster.If you are a Moderate user, then it depends on how frequent you use your phone.If you are a person who use the phone just for taking calls and seldom use it, then the battery will last you for the whole day.

  • I want it! I have a Sony Ericsson P910 ¿Should i buy it? :) :)

  • hello people!!! i want to buy this mobile and i have heard that the battery life is not good!!!!!!! so please let me know about this. please and thanks!!!!!1

  • I hate this phone! I bought it in February, and I've only had problems with it! Seriously, it turns off all the time, it's lacking and the battery is already used after 12 hours! It use 23 percent on standby, and 24 percent when I don't use the phone (SOMETIMES MORE!). Doesn't make sense, but that's what it says in ''battery consumption''. Two weeks after I bought the phone, I already had to sent the phone to be repaired. The only gave me a new battery.. And that didn't help at all! Now I'm looking forward to buy a new phone in July.

  • The wait for the ICS update is just killing me!

  • Hi, LG just released Quick Voice which they will be seeding to all Optimus Devices. I love my O2x and hope the Delay in ICS update was because LG wanted us to have quick voice also with ICS. Lets hope its true and we are updated to new ICS soon. Also looked at ICS in L7, looks prety cool, hope its worth the extended wait. If any one receive any update kindly share.

  • Hi , I am Using this phone since last 6 months and find it very good. Its really a amazing u will get a good browsing speed . Graphics are amazing due to NVIDIA tetra card only the thing is u need to charge it once in a day especially when u r using 3 g Network.

(the application Gallery stopped unexpectedly) any help with this pls.... 3.unknown reason of overheating 4.no software upgrade (wtf, just want to sell product and dont care about their aftersales market upgrade) 5.now I'm loosing my patience when my phone is making its own selection without touching it,ex:when you type letter A,sudden appearance of other letters occurs, funny right, it closes certain application and opens diffirent one hahaha.....totally shit) BTW,ANY HELP FROM THE ABOVE PROBLEMS WILL BE HIGHLY APPRECIATED,THANKS

  • Sheheer, where i can find gta 3 free of cost. Thanks in advance

  • Sheheer where i can find gta 3 free of cost

  • Performance not as per specifications. Becomes very slow while using GPRS.

  • Sheheer, where i can find gta 3 game for free of cost.... Thanks

  • I'm from Venezuela, where there's a 400$ limit on what you can spend online (outside of the country of course). I chose this because it's among the best phones you can get for less than 400$ and because the phone is not so big. I don't like phones with screens over 4" because they are more difficult to handle in your hands and don't easily fit in pockets. PROS: -Powerful phone, and you can overclock it and make it more powerful than a SGSII (unless it's overclocked too). I haven't tried very high-end games, but angry birds, world of goo, osmos hd run very smooth. -Beautiful to look at screen. It doesn't need to be amoled or retina to look beautiful. Also, it's supposed to be scratch resistant but I'm not willing to try it. -Nearly unbrickable, doesn't have any locks, unlike Motorola Atrix 4g which is in the same price and feature range, and has a locked bootloader (you can hard brick the phone while trying to unlock the bootloader in that one). You just root it (I used UnlockRoot), flash recovery with Rom Manager, and you are ready to install any rom you like. I'd recommend temasek's CM7.2, everything works like a charm with it. -Replaceable battery, expandable storage via sd card. -Quadband, it works with any phone operator in any country (as long as they work with GSM sim cards) -Good cameras, I've made videocalls (gtalk, skype, tango) using the front camera and it has a decent image quality. -Not too big, and it's thin so it fits in pockets without a problem. CONS: - The only way to turn on the screen to unlock it is the power button, so treat it nicely. There's an option in CM7 roms to make the volume buttons work to wake the phone, but they don't always work. You can also use apps such as "Tap Tap App", which wakes the phone by tapping at the sensor, but again, it doesn't always work. -The battery lid looks a bit fragile, I wouldn't mess too much with it or it can get loose. -None other I can think of.

  • I'm also using the gta with free of cost... Nice game.. Waiting for max Payne....

  • i too have the ics cm9 kang build for my o2x. video recording doesnt work and video playback only some things work if im not mistaken. perhaps just flash vids are ok and HD vids are not playable. also i may add i think battery life sucks on this build. takes FOREVER to charge and dies quickly. anyone know where i can find the latest of thie build mentioned above, is there an official site??? greatly appreciated, googling, not finding.

  • hmmm... my lg 2x already run for more than 12 hour and it still had 47% battery life, i already used it for : music around 2 hours and talk time around 15 minutes and playing games around 30 minutes (bluetooth & wi-fi off) not to mention it awesome if you combine it with Sony MW600 (LG handfree such a lame not worthy and useless and very dangerous if you used it while driving a motorcycle or bike) if only LG also takes a consideration for bikers that love hearing music while driving and other consumer taste of music that need their own choice for headset / earbuds and also still in their money range (cable or bluetooth no problem) like sony mw600 (well it still quite expensive but still worthy for bluetooth system, long life battery, radio, and Premium earbuds)

  • just wanna ask, everytime i try to call it says, "your call cannot be connected, please check your phone settings", what should i do? pls help

  • I want to update to 2.3 tel me hw is does

  • Samsung galaxy s2 skyrocket is better Than lg 2x

  • I love my 2x, but I am really not sure about an upgrade to ICS from 2.3.4. I'd hate to have to get rid of my optimus cause I cant upgrade it

  • I love my 2x, but I am unsure if I can upgrade from gingerbread to ICS. I hope I can because I am in love with this android and can't live without it :-)

  • You can get the v20g on xda forums in the optimus 2x thread

  • Good hardware, but maybe the worst software support! Many bugs and no answer from LG. I would not recommend LG phones to anybody!

  • lg claims dt it will release ics for 2x this year. lets see if this innovative company keeps up 2 its words!

  • Yes... wen they wil giv the ICS....Probably before the end of the earth...

  • I totally agree with u Rob!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Agree with u...this fon is a total waste....as itis the first dualcore phone,but still have no ICS yet...LG Givig promises only....

  • specs says 400hours standby lol what a joke thats like 16 days. are they kidding. i can lock everything off. 2g. no FD. no wifi. no gps. nothing. juicedefender even. doesnt matter. this fone will not standby more than 12 hours. 4-6 hours if im using it. its absurd. seriously. who boasts a totaly load of shit about its battery time being 100X better than it actually is. this is stupid. im so annoyed. someone said. oh its the battery . i replaced it. $40 wasted. did nothing for my battery life. =( not sure if its just my O2X. reading around. ive read mixed reviews. some ppl can get 24. hours. some ppl can get 2-3 days. most ppl are like me. lucky if it gets 12 hours. why have a fone when u have to lock everything off that it has to offer just to get thought 12 hours of being able to be reached on mobile. what a joke.

  • guys i heard it has some heating problems... it is ture???

  • try uninstalling any app through the application list application list - options - more - edit - unistall it will unistall the app and takes really long to do it, and unlike previous versions, it will go out of edit mode..

  • Hey buddy, I have upgraded to 20h, not facing any such problems as u mentioned.... But i believe that 20g was better than 20h..... Issues that I feel Network keeps fluctuating. Battery life not so great like 20g, need to test it more... **Just try to format the phone & the Internal phone memory before u can go to d service centre...

  • While at 2.2 about 6 hours if you activly use it, after 2.3 about 8-9 hours depending on what do you, but after 2.3 you can have it up for about 30 hours in idle before you need to charge it. I'm waiting for 4.0 which sould be released soon to see if battery time improves more

  • i am actually facing those silly restart issues again.....guys please dont update to 20h. it also has a bug when uninstaling an app... i think 20g was much stable and i see no improvements anywhere with this 20h update... i need to go to the service center to downgrade it to 20g.... Do not upgrade to 20h!!

  • Hi, I want to buy this phone too. Can you tell me how much does your battery lasts? Thank you!

  • I love this phone, I've had it for a while now and at first I liked it but ran into a few problems like crashes and glitches, but only from downloading certain phone performance apps. After i got an sd card and downloaded the update this phone is absolutely great. no problems no glitches and compared to many phones(first hand experience) this phones speed and performance is much better then alot of new phones out there. All of my friends that have ihpones 4 (not 4s) cant even keep up with my phone. i wanted an iphone but i was convinced to buy this so i did, and im very glad i did. the iphone does have many more free apps but this phone is much...muuch faster then the iphone 4.

  • Just buy this hanphone about 30 mknute ago.. its awesome quality full hd huhu

  • Its more than a week that you have upgraded, can u tell me is it better than 20g.......

  • i'd say to look for a smartphone with 1 gb of ram. 512 mb are kinda on the edge. i have the phone since last summer and the ram is its weak spot.

  • Hope so.. even m waiting for it :) hey till then u can try ICS camera from GooglePlay "Camera ICS+" its awesome :)

  • Hi... I am in Malaysia and I want to buy this phone. I just want to know if there is any weakness or challenge in this phone or not??? thanks so much

  • Hi all,,, i am In Malaysia and i am planning to buy this phone. I would like to tell me if there are disadvantages and weakness of this phone, or i can buy it and face no challenges??? thanks so much

  • I talked with LG and they said end of June early July is when they plan to release ics to the optimus 2x. i hope they do as i have been waiting for this update

  • Hi,, i am in Malaysia and i would like to buy this phone. Is it good?? are there any challenges??? please help with this,, thanks so much

  • I do factory reset the phone.And the phone speed now amazing.The phone becomes snappier now.

  • Thank you for contacting LG Electronics -----------Reply to Customer Enquiry------------ Dear Customer, Thanks for sharing your concern with us. ICS (icecream sandwich) will come in third quarter of 2012 for LG P990 phone. -----------Original Customer Inquiry------------ Received Date : 03/05/2012 11:48 10 The type of inquiry : Software/Hardware updates Product/Model No. : GSM/LGP990 Hello Sir/Mam, I am AG from India, i just want to know when Android - Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0 Operating system is going to come for Optimus 2x India ?? Thank you.

  • We are already in Q2 of 2012, no signs from LG on releasing ICS for Optimus 2x, LG Service Center said it wont be coming in Q2 of 2012, may be in Aug 2012 we can taste the ICS for our Optimus 2x.

  • i just updated my optimus 2x to V20H today. Had done a v20G update previous week!! no idea what are the improvements!! Does LG release update notes, if yes can anyone help me where to find them?

  • I have been reading reviews and comments on HTC Evo 3D and LG Optimus 2x for about a week now and I am still not decided what to go for? Both will get ICS, HTC has a bigger screen and a higher resolution but LG Optimus 2x has better results in all benchmark tests. I do not care about the 3D experience, but mainly about hw specs. Is there anyone here that that "played" on both devices? I am not interested in hard fans that will just promote their favourite brand just because it's theirs. Thanks

  • LG phones are for customers who don't know what bad software is,I was that when I got this one and it's the worst phone I ever got,not because LG doens't give the upadtes or that they don't know what customers really want but because it doesn't even publish the phone's source code with nvidia to help a bit the developers like Cyanogen team even if they promised it and that is the most pathetic thing about LG mobile,they don't even worth mentioning in big site's like this

  • hey guy voodoo sound plus require root pls give another apps without require root

  • Use "Voodoo Sound Plus" from Google Play!

  • the promise statement of Android developer ICS 4.0 release in Q2 of 2012 not August.

  • Contact the lg mobile service centre not the customer care. the customer care told me the same answer the kernel is the same baseband is 20110725.

  • LG Service Center said ICS 4.0 for Optimus 2x will come in August 2012.

  • Thanks bro

  • No, it won't be getting 4.0, not all versions of the 2x have 2.3

  • when? this month. I have no patience

  • i tried to update looking at your comment, but it says "please check your software version". i also contacted LG customer care, they said V20e is the latest upgrade available. i too currently have V20e installed. can u share with us the baseband, kernal and build number?

  • use settings use only mass storage hope is not too late!

  • optimus 2x will get 4.0 later.dont worry.

  • OMG then there is no support for the phone and even no updates like ICS 4.0 for this phone !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • lg optimus 2x is discontinued everywhere.

  • does d phone get flashed or d data remains?

  • When will LG release Update OS ICS 4.0 to Optimus 2X ??

  • hi..has the baseband changed after the update? or its the same 0725 ?

  • Thanks for ur replay... is it possible background downloading...

  • I hav updated my 2x just two days ago in India to v20g. U r right, online it shows 20h but the version available in the service centres are v20g & believe me this version is quite much more stable, fixes the gps issue & also better battery & ui. Atleast u can wait for ics with this version

  • You should go for this since it is an excellent device. It's graphic benchmark scores are the one of the highest to this date. It has a fast tegra 2 dual core processor, fine resolution, a lot of customizations (via custom roms), and much more. The only cons for this device is it's appearance - I'm sure you can live with that.

  • Did any body updated their Optimus 2x - India to V20h ?? if yes, Please let me know the changes in V20h compare to V20e.

  • Press that button again,green will change to orange,so simple.

  • thanks very much - is their any reasons why you think i should go for the lg optimus 2x? thanks very much!!! :)

  • hi mate i suggest u to opt for LG 2X as iot is the best among ur choice

  • Which is better out of the Blackberry torch 9810, Lg Optimus 2x and sony ericsson xperia ray? Please say in order P.S please reply it's important thanks, :)

  • i have updated my phone to V20C and now it hadn't got any problem with GPS, also it dont lags as it was before!

  • i don't have any problem with my o2x p990 .. electronic goods is a mass production so there will occur any various problem with same device .. Ex : two p990 will get a difference problem & bugs .. so service center need a time to analyze the problem

  • Please download Opera Mobile... The greate internet browser.

  • Does if occur to you that your hands might be small? If thats the case this phone is probably not right for you.

  • If you want to avoid problems, don't buy not worth it! I have the P920 (Optimus 3d) and the second time I sent it for repair.The next problem is the customer service,straight away says that if they can find nothing,they will charge me £20.Doesn't matter fact I have a year warranty,if they can't find a fault,they will charge me-ridiculous!!!

  • hey,may i ask about LG OPTIMUS 2X for android update? can it update till 3.5 and above?

  • Hi, I am from India.I saw in 'LG mobile update tool' that latest firmware version is 'v20h' (mine o2x is v20e).but when i connected my O2x with my laptop,its showing you have latest version and no need to update. Anyone from India tried yet ? have you able to succeed in doing the update?

  • browsing is nw mch faster.. nd 1080p has bcome very fn than b4.. battery life i found to increase excellent way.... and no problem of apps.. its al fn.. aand ita mch mch fast nw

  • I have this phone since 8 months.Very descent phone.IPS display looks always gorgeous and really IPS display is an evergreen display.I m still on 2.2 froyo.The users of this phone will you please tell me about the performance of phone after 2.3 upgrade.I do not upgrade this phone because I heard that most of the google play store applications do not support for lg gingerbread.Is this true guys?Also please tell me about internet speed upgrading to gingerbread.Is there any difference.While recording 1080p I see sometimes lags.720p recording and playing video is much smoother.Camera is excellent taking nice photos.But for this to take crystall clearity photos I burst the protection cover of camera.I heard that this phone is now discontinued.Gaming is very nice experience with this phone.Supports and quickly opens and smoothly plays.Thanks for TEGRA2 CHIPSET.

  • and when me as a user say... thats ur madness u dont know to handle it and the ram.. and u never had a smartphone b4.. even sgs2 shows 800mb ram.. n remember only 2 fones wd ds screen size have such less width... length matters u?? do u play rugby with it ... and remember the price.. even if it costed 40$ more.. no one is there... .. to compete with it... n ram mr. u shd know a galaxy note user with less applications dan me was amazed to see my speed.... reason is u shud know how to use the specs to boost itself.... name any other fone at ds range wd 1080p wrkings... u dnt hav.... hahhh.... better learn m ready for u on fb.

  • Last but not least. Tegra2 lacks SIMD extensions of cortex A9 (marketed as NEON), unlike TI OMAP of sgs2 and GPU tegra2 cannot decode most 1080p video codecs. this results in NOT PLAYING MOST 1080 VIDEOS ON INTERNET.really. FRAUD.

  • Hey, everyone, do you REALLY own this phone before posting? 1.This phone is large without a reason. it is so large that it cannot fit in my hand. it is disturbing and uncomfortable to use with one hand. 2. Battery life is charging every evening 3. the ui doesn't have hardware acceleration and it is laggy. It is ridiculous to buy a dual core tegra phone and the scrolling or menu animations are laggy. try it before you buy and you'll see. 4. Basic stuff like alarm clock when phone is swithced off IS NOT WORKING! 5. 512 MB RAM? joke. 128MB reserved for GPU. IS IT WRITTEN IN THE SPECS ANYWHERE? NOPE! the phone starts clean with approximately 190 MB free ram and in a while ends up with 50MB. Thats where the real problems start 6. When the available ram comes to a minimum it is awfully slow. really slow. it takes 3 seconds to open the contacts list. THIS PHONE IS A JOKE. go for anything else and probably away from androids. every other os is faster with less specs.

  • when the ICS 4.0 for it

  • Its a great phone with awesome features, the only lack is that LG upgrades the phone too late but its also one of the great phones with 512MB Ram. I personally own 2x & I have not received any issues with Random reboot, Its one of the great phones & with a superb Headphones the sound quality is fabulous

  • Touch wood, my phone runs very stably on stock ROM and have yet to experience any auto restart! Due to low amount of RAM, it can be slightly slow at times though.

  • sound quality is better than sgs II (i tried both) also sgs II wont be heard of when on a table, because of its placement, compared to most phones its above the average definately...

  • what problems? i dont have any, but maybe its because i use cyanogen mod 7.1....

  • Good day guys... I'm planning to buy o2x, but i'm confused because i heard that there are some problems on this phone..help me to decide..tnx

  • Most definitely, by a different one. The hardware is unstable, and even with custom rom's it still randomly reboots itself, has poor battery life and the touchscreen is not as sensitive as other options. Buy the Samsung Galaxy S2 or Nexus.

  • once update ur os..the its gud ..works better.

  • my phone takes about 2hours to charge from 10-100%.

  • Hi, Would you recommend me to buy this phone or recommend me to buy another phone ? Thanks.

  • Ppl. My 2x takes 5 hours to completely charge from 0-100%. Went to the service center and they said its normal for some phones to take that long.!! Is it happening like that for everyone or am i being lied to.?? I even got a new battery. But still.. Its been only 8 months since i bought it.

  • How good is the audio quality playing 320kbps MP3s on the microSD using quality Sennheiser headphones (:

  • Yeah. Battery life really sucks. From full charge to dead in less than 14 hours without using the phone at all. However, I downloaded Juice Defender and it now goes for 3 days, but without using the phone. So, I'm thinking with moderate use I should still be able to get a day out of it without a charge.

  • To be honest, there's nothing special about the sound quality. In fact, the speakers lack loudness and even using the headphones isn't the best. I have a 4 year old Sony Ericsson 580 and it sounds much louder through the speaker and the headphone. I'm a new LG O2X user and still haven't figured out everything about it but I don't think there's much to figure out about the lack of loudness on the phone. Even the ring tones aren't loud. I couldn't find any sound control (equalizer...) like the one I have on the Sony but I saw a Youtube clip that showed it did but I cant find it.

  • Hi everyone.. I am facing some problem with my Optimus 2x from about a month,my phone is running very slow,i am using Laucher Ex but it is still very slow and it is on 2.3.4.. Please help me.Thanks in advance

  • how is the sound quality of 2x in loudespeaker and headphones?plz guys reply fast i want to buy this phone...

  • Hi everyone, been using this phone for 2-3 weeks. Great phone. It's affordable, sound quality from the speaker is great, the screen size is great, not too big nor too small. Battery life could be better and could also use some more RAM. And yeah, it would be perfect if it came with Android 2.3 Gingerbread rather than 2.2 Froyo.

  • i have this phone for almost 6 months and dont experiencing any problems with it. I think that LG phones have the same one problem: bad manufacturer's support. LG said that ICS update will be released(same with GB update which was released with a lot of bugs and i dont know when they will release a fix for it), but when? Maybe soon, maybe till september.. Who knows? Between those that you have listed, optimus 2x is cheaper, it is a good choise between performance/price and it is my choise.

  • This phone really amazing,excellent performance, Yes is upgradable this coming Q2.

  • lg o2x users does this phone have any problem?will this phone get ics update? should i buy this phone or buy any other dualcore phone like s2 or sensation?

  • Slow hp i've ever had

  • there is a headset .. nd its a good one :)

  • yes there are in the box

  • Hi there, I have the optimus 2x and yes there is headphones the noise canceling ones.

  • Hello all, nice day! Hope you can help me, I want to know what's the counterpart of HTC SENSE when it comes to LG phones. Advance thx.

  • Hello! Just want to ask regarding its battery life, is it awful or not? is it good or not? is it excellent or not compare to other smartphones.. Thanks in advance. :)

  • I guess it depends on the country, but in Estonia there was a headset, HDMI, data cable/charger and a free car mounting bracket plus a charger to charge your phone in a car.

  • Hi guys, good day! Just want to clarify if it is true that there's no headset included in LG Optimus 2X box upon purchase? Appreciate your reply. Thanks in advance! @_@

  • if u looking for a stylish phone,go for black.if u prefer performance and features, go for 2x... if lg made a phone, with the design of black having the features of 2x,it would be a great success over s2.... 2x's design was a great mistake of lg...

  • Got this phone for almost 2 months and i can say it's worth the money. Waiting for ICS..

  • 2x for great performance black for great display and battery

  • Hello everyone!I want to buy this phone and I want to know the opinion of the users...I have read that there were some lags that with the update of the android can be solved, is that true?also please tell me your general opinion(advantages and disadvantages)...thanks a lot!

  • Pls optimus 2X And optimus black, which is the best?

  • LG should focus on updating the O2x to ICS faster. Its taking too long, especially since O2x was available way before the samsung galaxy S2, yet its getting ICS first.

  • "you can only register one exchange account"???? how can i add more than one exchange account without root this is a basic requirements nowadays...

  • can some one please tell me the difference between this phone and the G2X!!! im so confused

  • would someone please tell me the difference between this phone and the G2X!!!! im so confused

  • Be patient, our O2x definitely will get iCS update too. Samsung has announced that the ICS update for SGS II will delayed. You can find ICS rom for O2x in forum.xda-developers, but still alpha release.

  • I live in canada (sadly) and I'm with Windmobile. Is it possible to update to 2.3? I tried to but couldn't cause it kept saying phone has latest version even though it shows Android version 2.2. Am I stuck with the 2.2? Also, I was shocked by how crappy (short)the battery life is. Is there anywhere I can get a battery with longer life?

  • I have an issue with my O2X like after doing 10-12 times wi-fi access by making ON & OFF,then if i try to make it ON for the next time then it shows 'ERROR' while enabling wi-fi on my O2X.Then i have to switch-off & switch-on my phone to make the wi-fi work again. So can anyone in this forum tell me that is there any other way to make the wi-fi work properly by some other means rather than doing switch-on & switch-off???

  • Excellent Smart phone. Price is very low comparatively other smart phones having same features. Excellent Speed for Internet browsing + Applications working, you will not find it hazardous while working. Very Smooth functioning with ease of use. Don't be reluctant and confidently go for it, you will not feel uncomfortable after having it. In prevailing High-tech smart phone world I love this smart phone in this price range having all features you have loved for.

  • Which one: LG Optimus 2X, Galaxy+, xperia arc or Evo 3d?

  • Which one: LG Optimus 2X, Galaxy+, xperia arc or Evo 3d?

  • All I can say after using this phone is that I have a huge headache! The quality of sound and reception blows! The touchscreen is cheaply integrated and theres only one freaking speaker but two speaker ports??? who are they trying to fool?? The battery went dead after watching only 2 short youtube videos! This phone is the worst hunk of caca that lg has ever crapped out!!

  • Can anyone tell me how to register for DivX VOD registration on my Optimus 2x??? Please provide me exact steps ... Thanks in advance ...

  • based on the manual guide of LG Optimus 2x. there are two speakers in the unit but the manual clarifies that the right side is the really speaker and the left side is for the microphone.. please see overview first your manual guide..

  • next time read d manual book beb..dont rush

  • the other slot is for the mic.. like iphone4

  • hey i am receiving notification from the LG software update tool that there is a new software update for 2X..its showing V20G update. Can anyone confirm the same? because when i start the update, it shows my phone is already updated with latest software which V20E!

  • optimus 2x has 1080p vid re3c @ 30fps

  • Optimus 2x is having only 1 speaker & the other speaker slot is just like that.I confirmed this from LG service center. LG is cheating its customers by making such 2 speaker slots outside case.

  • How many speakers does this device have?i thought there are two but max sound is coming from one speaker and other speaker is feeble....

  • 2x

  • optimus 2x is better by far. and the black is black on this phone, not like on the optimus black one which has way too high luminosity. around 700 is good, 1k is way too much and the excessive light will make black be a dark grey. also, since I got this phone i never had problems with it, no reboots, no nothing. just that android 2.2.2 and 2.3.4 on it looks aweful. Can't wait for ICS for it because the LG ICS looks awesome, from what I've seen.

  • LG optimus 2X and LG optimus Black, Which one is the best.

  • which case is suitable for this phone? i could see Amzer case is making this phone look like a remote. Any other brand?

  • Don't forget AWS 1700 on Wind network :) What a real Global roaming phone should be.

  • haha... u knw i hav removed the frnt screen guard and put on the camera outgo..... and ya really irritating bloatware by lg.... this forces me to root bt heard that ics allows to freeze even bloatware .. so i will wait....

  • If you need crystal-clear 8MP photos on the Optimus 2X P990, remove the plastic-back-cover.

  • I think it beacuse of high demand sales last season, even the galaxy s2,Arc S we cannot find more stock unit right now is limited stock only, due to high demand last season...

  • yes.. you are right actually even flipkart has removed optimus 2x .... nt out of stock but removed...... and elsewhere its out of stock.. lg told aftr putting new sets it hs stopped manufacture till it hets back enuf popularity... not like n73 whch was stopped cz its popularity.. bt like incredible s.. which had 2k increase in price in a month.... so its actually gained enuf to cntniue..

  • Yes its true that you won't find this model easily these days but still there is hope. The online deals are the only way to get them it seems. If you look around for it in shops then they'll probably refuse. Also don't trust them even if they promise to get you the model. I know this from first hand experience because during the famous "LG Optimus 2X Random Reboot Issue" a lot of models were taken back and new ones were re-launched. Though I'm not implying that it will happen to you(end up with a defective piece) if you get it but then a .01% chance always exists considering its not available in the major stores now and its still in great demand, some lesser known stores might want to get rid of it.I know this because I spent 1.5 months looking around for it and gathering all sorts of information. Btw I'm in New Delhi. I got it from a popular store in my area(West Delhi). The price was 20,000

  • its fn.. nt so bad audio... earfone is nice and actuallu audio is loud enuf and good n clear.. its nt dealbreaker

  • I own the lg optimus 2x for about 6 months now. Although the first series running froyo did have some issues, I can assure you all that now, recent series running Gingerbread 2.3.4 are lightning-fast, especially when surfing the web, and I did not encounter absolutely no problem regarding this phone! The optimus 2x Is the best thing for the money. I personally chose the lg over the Galaxy S2 because of the huge price difference, and I wasn't sorry I made that choice even thou lg didn't have the gingerbread upgrade at the time. The display is more realistic Than the ultra amoled I think , and due to the slightly bigger screen on the galaxy the LG has more ppi. Batt is OK, heavy racing games run perfect, mail is great, Facebook the same. The 8M camera is not great in low light, but very good on close up mode and good light, video is just nice, I prefer using 720p at 30fps rather than 1080/24 fps Speakers are a mess, but trough the stock headphones the sound is marvelous, the screen did not scratch , the batt cap didn't either. I took the time to write this small review for those who have a hard time deciding (like I did too) GO AHEAD It's a great deal for the money.... Good luck you all

  • HSDPA Frequencies for this phone in Canada is 850/1900/2100

  • how is sound quality of this phone in headphones and loudspeaker?

  • I think you should root and use rom cook. I'm using rom cook and battery life 1.5 days.

  • guys i have a problem.. everytime i charge my phone, it gets overheated and turns off by itself.. what should i do? my phone is rooted.. thank you.

  • this phone is very bad go to galaxy s2

  • What the cause of less bettery life ; it is almost 8-9 hours after full charge. main reason is call standby ? Is there any way to save the bettery life ? Otherwise it is the worst mobile in the world.

  • Guys where do I buy this phone in Hyderabad ??? I have been searching this for more than a month now..Has LG stopped the production of this unit ????

  • Every thing s amazing...... but d phone getz heat up soon

  • I have the 2x, the written specs on the camera sound good but its not that great, it almost seems as if it has a smokey haze over shadowing the pics, the phones hardware its extremely fast though

  • i cmpared and find the stock music player is still better than poweramp ... poweramp is clear but it loses reality... but lg stock player wrks nicely.... i cmpared same music on both players of same playback of 5secs . poweramo compresses flourocensly losing reality... means 2x has best player in andriid world

  • many ppl say install custom rom to dis phone.. m not an expert but can someone give a link on how to install cyanogenmod.......(video)

  • Love the phone, but I'll admit I had to root it and manually install Gingerbread and a custom kernel (not difficult). You really can't beat it for the price. Still feels snappy today (1 year after).

  • my screen started flickering and speaker was going mad. i had to do a hard reset by pressing volume down and lock.... new i noticed it faster and amazing and better then when bought... but ids there any way to remove bloatware without rooting.... also i really cry for three ram so i need to throw bloats

  • dis phone is gr8...

  • lg optimus 2x users does this phone have any problem?

  • yeah samsung products don't last more than 1 year.

  • MIUI nearly destroyed my phone! I do not recommend it for O2X users! btw when on earth is lg releasing the ICS?? Does ANYONE know??

  • I really didn't understand the page MIUI, I didn't see anything. Remember Im new with this, I still have my blackberry, but I want to change to android.

  • ICS on LG Optimus 2x:

  • I am a "rare" user of LG in Singapore. 1 thing I noticed is that their handsets are very similar to Samsung. Perhaps Android make it looks the same. But Samsung tend to have more problems, according to some of my friends, than LG (in terms of phone which are released around the same time period). For me, the LG Optimus 2X is made in Korea. I don't know about others. But the one I'm using is good. Battery life drains fast. Overall, 7.5/10 for this phone.

  • hey. really considering buying this but i have a question. I had a samsung galaxy s 4g (carrieT-mobie)but got stolen. if i buy this will it still work on my 4g network since is a 3g? THX

  • Yes it's getting ICS update

  • which phone is better btw 1)lg optimus 2x 2)samsung galaxy r 3)sony xperia arc 4)sony xperia arc s n why...plz tell me fast

  • Hello there.. Is this phone getting ICS? I really like this phone because of its dual core processor, but i wanna make sure if it is getting ice cream sandwich. I'm a little doubtful of getting this device, atrix 2(with 1gb of ram)or nexus s. I just want to switch from my blackberry.

  • Thanks PMD, I will definitely consider your opinion on Galaxy R, and the least price I have explored for the phone is around 19K, tell me if you know a dealer who can crack it in a better price...can i also request you to share ur ideas on why Galaxy R is a better phobe than 2X, keeping in mind 2X has better camera features...?

  • I'll say R.. But just make sure its available and has no hardware issues.. thats a severe doubt in ma mind... dont know if its a rumour or what.. And pls let me know what phone u buy and the price today...

  • i have it for two months now, and i have to say that despite many negative comments all over the net it is a very nice phone indeed one thing that definitely could be improved is camera, pictures are worst than with any of my previous phones (n900, e72, n82) - i really expected more here first thing that you need to do is update software to latest 2.3 android, it is a must have, otherwise you will be disappointed! (there is ics coming in a month or so, but personally i would wait for few more months, as decent software is hardly a lg strong side) then if you want get most of your phone install titanium backup and remove all bloatware that this phone is filled with, it really, really helps - there is handful of forums that will guide you on what can be removed safely after that just use it :) for past 6 weeks i didn't have single problem with it (i.e. no reboots, no battery drain, no calls problems etc.) i guess it is NOT a good phone for android beginners, but it can work extremely well if you willing to spend few hours tuning it (and with recent amazon sales it can be purchased unlocked for around 220 euro, which seems extremely good value for me)

  • Friend, this is not a speaker. It is a microphone. You can see this information on user's guide.

  • hello sirs, according to the article of gsmarena comparing optimus2x to galaxy r optimus 2x has autofocus in video recording...however browsing through some video samples in youtube there is no video there that indicates optimus 2x can do macro video nor any kind of focusing mode... so errr whats up?

  • Hello all the geeks out there....I have researched extensively on this Galaxy R and i am very much impressed by the Phone, but still am in a fix between Optimus 2X and Galaxy R. Please help my tension resolve and help me choose the best one. I noted LG outdoes Galaxy R in terms of Camera quality but Galaxy R outperforms 2X in terms of Hardware specs. Please tell me which one should I go for. I am buying eitehr of this phone this Saturday. Hence please help...I am more interested in Galaxy R then Optimus 2X please tell me buying Galaxy R would be a wise decision...

  • Does both of the speakers worked normally? My LG Optimus 2x's left speaker is actually not working and I don't know why.. Please HELP!!

  • To all of LG P990 users who aren't satisfied with your phone, just install custom ROM on it! Go search for custom ROM on forum.xda-developer. Currently I'm using custom Rom Gueste2x v3.

  • I think is problems with software because LG software has never been good.

  • this phone is best if u see d price... battery is not good, but if u see even Gs2 battery is not so good not onlg gs2 but also other android phones. install task killer or fast reboot from market for lagging problem.

  • Goooooooooooooooooooooooooood phone man......

  • With the 2.3 gingerbread installed the device is awesome. Very fast and works smoothly .My only point is the battery duration. It should be at list 1900mha

  • worst phone ever. i have been using this since june 2011 and i regret everyday. for a DUAL-CORE phone, it lags like crazy! sometimes takes 5-10seconds to go to my homepage and i dont have many games installed. also, some calls can't get through. they go straight to voicemail. battery is bad.

  • Lg 2x

  • Hello guys which phone of these is the best: LG Optimus 2X Samsung Galaxy S Plus Samsung Google Nexus s

  • go to the lg uk site thats where i did mine and im from tauranga :)

  • i bought Lg-900 phone and i love it so much

  • Hey i got lg optimus 2x 1week ago ..... i merely download 15 to 20 games nd apps home screen working every slow.i dont know why? each nd every apps and game i moved on sd card inspite off that doesnt work properly! shitttttt now i regrat to purchesed this phone

  • i know the both 3g and 2g networks(and its fullforms)also.who doesnt know that 2g network will be slow?..my point is that i could do it in 2g.

  • You will not have access to skype video calling on a 2G network .......as its slow and 2G network is GPRS that is general packet data which is much slower than 3G ........Common Sense

  • android 2.3.4 is upgradable in india ? ple... reply

  • You have to update to gingerbread (android 2.3) to use skype with frontal camera. It works perfectly. Look on LG 2x forums at xda-developers how to update.

  • Just buy the 2430 MAH battery from ebay !!! i own one it is a very good one...

  • i hav to disagree with u.Because i have used skype for videocalling in this device.Honestly,iam from india and i called a person belong UAE using 2g network.My version is 2.3.4..

  • Sype videocalling only work wifi internet connection, so you need to disable the data mobile internet Setting-wireless-mobile network-unchecked the DATA.... And now connect to your wifi internet connection Using skype application go to contact long press the name you want to connect and click videocall....

  • Does anyone know how to send out a mass text with this phone?

  • Is gingerbread avaliable for Canadian version of lg Optimus 2x?

  • For anybody who upgraded to gingerbread for Optimus 2x, how were able to so, the lgmobile software says no updates avaliable. I live in Canada.

  • I currently have the Samsung Precedent and I'm eagerly awaiting the 2X. Honestly I wish I would've gotten the LG Optimus Q that ST (my service) had instead of this one. Randomly shutting off and the processor just being inundated even if you only have a handful of apps open. (fyi a friend of mine has the Samsung Prevail, for Boost Mobile, and it's been doing the same thing). I don't own this phone but i'd recommend it anyway just based on the specs. besides, if enough people make noise they may enable skype on android OS phones (it worked for the SOPA bill. lol)

  • I've researched this in anticipation of purchasing this phone. Apparently there is no android OS for phones that supports video in skype. I've searched skype forums to confirm this.

  • If you wanna get good performance and long battery life, you would choose tablet.

  • would you rather i get the lg optimus 2x or the samsung galaxy precedent??.

  • I have an LG Optimus 2X and simply cannot get the front camera working for skype. If you know how, please do tell us. Myself and (it appears) many other people are keen to use this feature. Can you explain how to get this to work? Thanks!

  • go for optimus 2x it has 8mp camera, dual core good for gaming and its UI is way better than touch wiz of samsung. Both r of same price.

  • What should I get? LG Optimus 2x or the Samsung Galaxy S plus ? Please tell why one or another. TY

  • are you sure you have own this unit? before you post here make sure you have it... your liar lg p990 is very smooth device without any lag,

  • how good is this phone compared to some high phones such as epic 2?.

  • the mobile has lag even with dual-core the battery is terrible with just medium usage you have to charge it every 14 hours i upgraded it to gingerbread(2.3.4)

  • How? The PC suite or the update program both say no update availible. This is in New Zealand though, where the release may not be offered from LG.

  • good pm dear sirs and maam just a quick question I am about to trade in an s8500 samsung wave for an optimus 2x... my question though, does optimus 2x have any form of touch/autofocusing when recording video? quite important for me and I am in haste can any kind soul verify this? thanks in advanced dear sirs/maam ^^

  • its normal for smartfone.

  • To Viren if you want save battery you need to disabled background sync and auto account setting-account sync-unchecked backround sync and auto sync.. dude my 2x work fine using front camera while using skype, I Suggest you better to go service center to checked your unit... To Ravi Yes this phone is excellent without any issued problem i rate it 9/10 To Anonymous Press long hold touchscreen and you can delete the account you want to delete, Yes is upgradable to Gingrbread at service center free of charge..

  • hi, can someone please answer my question. I just bought LG optimus 2x a few days ago, and I have to charge the battery everyday, is that normal? I cannot swap to the front face camera while i am on skype, is that a known issue. Thanks.

  • hey.. m planning to buy dis fone..can anyone suggest wether to buy dis or galaxy r..? do they both have same quality of gaming experience..?? are there speeds equal..as they have the same processor..? n also please tell me how to install cynagenmod..???

  • Have a try on Astro File Manager.

  • Go to Android Market and download ES File Manager

  • Search on Market for ES Explorer and download it.

  • if youre like me, and cant trust the lg pc suite, then go to any lg service centre and theyll do it for free, though i recommend for you to install a custom rom, like cyanogen mod

  • the truth is, if you look at the other phones, no phones can beat the bang to the buck aspect of this phone, plus if you put aside the flaws of the lg stock rom and flash lets say, cyanogenmod rom, youve got a beast of a phone, yes the battery life sucks, but why wouldnt it if youre constantly using ur phone to do multimedia tasks and browsing and gaming and what not :)

  • hi there i have a question how do u say the battery life is good mine lasts foe less than a day

  • no i hav not rooted !! i am on 2.3.3 android of lg !!!! demerits - i dnt thk any if u dnt compare wd galaxy s2 bcoz it is much costlier now !!! in ths range no other has sch gr8 ips screen.... no one has dual core no one supports 1080p full hd recording/ no one gives sch gr8 hardware and design !!! the most accurate gps yet was found to be of optimus 2x to be 2.5 metrers to correct..... and a so gr8 8 mp in ds range i dnt thnk !! ray is good but very small!! n no others i thnk wd gd 8 mp!! battery life still better than xperia ray,neo v, galaxy s ,...... its only competitior is optimus black in ds range !!!! jst losses are a dual core , 1080p,and 8mp!!!! and galaxy r is really a superb one !! except the hardware part!!! the best of samsung software inside !!! bt a 5mp is sad !!!! if u r dependent mch on screen then go for optimus 2x !!! bcoz ips lcd gives much better results and as i know!! lcd best screen rankings ----- 1) i phone 4s 2) xperia arc 3) optimus 2x 4) incredible s !!!!! so i thnk in terms of screeen you need optimus 2x !

  • Lg 2x IPS Screen 100% excellent very clear and very bright better than Super Amoled, Galaxy R used Super Clear LCD if you ask me the contrast and color not so good its look pixelated color look washout color, if you dont believe me go to the cellphone shop and compare it 2x vs R screen ... 2x IPS Screen 100x better than SLCD of galaxy R

  • gtalk dosent supports it yet !!!!! no 2.3 fones show vdo chat on gtalk official app ( actually nt even voice chat)!! try skype ffriend!!!

  • app storage depends ! as u can transfer apps to sd card !! that dosentm means all internal storage is rid of it !! it uses lesser amount !! in dat case intenal 1 gb memory stores it !!!!! i transfer some games to sd !! then weightage decreases !! till now when i had 230 apps. all on default !! it went frm 1 gb to .56gb !!! when i moved games and a few (100) to sd card !! it now shows .81gb !! means !! u dnt need to care abt it much!! and yaa ahmed !! battery needs to be charged two times on cntinuous use!!!! that irritates me too!!! but you see same is wd other smartfones too!!! and on idle way u want maximum battery get juicedefender ultimate on free as i said below

  • But I believe the mysterious random reboot issue is fixed and so is the gingerbread update out as well. These were the only two issues plaguing the otherwise awesome phone. LG is known to be lethargic in rolling out updates as it isn't the best in the software department.Talk about hardware and you bet it has the most eye catching stuff at any expo. If the random Reboot issue is taken care of and the updates are flowing now,then I wouldn't want to dismiss such a powerful phone.As an alternative one can go for the Samsung Galaxy R at more or less the same price at ₹21,000 I just don't want to miss an 8MP camera and small form factor which I'd never get from its Samsung rival even though it sports a bigger screen(4.2 inch SLCD) and nearly double the amount of ram(1GB) *sigh This reboot issue :(

  • Hi, I updated my optimus 2X to 2.3.4 . But still i m not able to see video chat option in Gtalk.... Is there anyone else facing the same problem?????

  • I have this phone and is amazing. But i didn`t received a HDMI cable. Also if i found it at 14 Euro. I don`t understand why i have to pay another 14 Euro for using my phone factory features.

  • it shud have 768mb ram atleast !!! thats all i regret badly.....bt still no comparision!! any questions plz. ask?

  • dude wtf :D:D The Cortex-A9 processors are the highest performance ARM processors implementing the full richness of the widely supported ARMv7 architecture.

  • Yes you can

  • Well.. had it with 2.2 and it was laggy, now I use cyanogenmod and it's not bad.. but partly i'm sorry that i bouht this model, looks great, but feels cheapy plastic, and the screen... God damn gorilla? bulocks, yesterday it felt off my hands and 1/6 part of famous gorilla glass is cracked :( found replacement for 50~$ but then i have to disassamble all phone in parts.. So for me the phone is avarage.. I'ts good at 3d games, but laggy at lounchers ( have used many )

  • nice phone

  • Hai. somebody please tell me, what do you mean by rooting.and for what.... thanks in advance....

  • Pwaser Lg 2x p990 is stable, the only issue got lot problems restarting issue is lg 2x P999 US version thats why US SUE lg.... Lg 2x p990 no issue,no problem.... older Arc is better camera than new Arc S... See the review between Arc and Arc S camera sample.... Basha Yes its upgradable Rockko both are good, the only differrence is ram,screen,camera... but if you want excellent screen go 2x.... but if you are heavy multitasking go galaxy R its more ram....

  • LG optimus 2x is far better. 9103 can run on old 3g but 2x can use 3.5g tech. plus 2x has gorilla glass which 9103 does not have. build quality of 2x is also better than the other. camera is 8mp and can record and play 1080p videos which 9103 does not have. go for 2x.

  • yup, LG has confirmed on their FB page. Expected release of the update in Q2 2012

  • you have to turn off the useless running program. :)

  • hi there. I'm sorry to tell you, but the Arc S is not only irresistably sexy but oh so lightning fast and smooth. Also SE cameras are spectacular..I'm having the best experience ever with this gem. btw, I'm only looking at this phone 'cause I'm trying to find sth comparable to mine for my mother, but judging by the comments on stability problems of this one.. it seems like I'll have to keep lookin'

  • guys, can this phone be update to 4.0 ICS (Ice Cream Sandwich) version??? tnx

  • LG optimus 2x vs samsung galaxy R/Z i9103 which is better phone ??????

  • battery drains very quickly.............any advice

  • If you want better spec,features,blazing fast internet,excellent Award winning IPS Screen,awesome gaming smartphone i recommend buy lg 2x.... if you want sexy design smartphone go arc S Its up to you look excellent spec or sexy design smartphone but poor performance....

  • Setting-account sync-background(disabled unchecked)-auto sync(disable unchecked)

  • Thank you very much, i thought i am the only person with this problem. I will mail to lg regarding this bug.

  • which one is better? galaxy w or optimus 2x or xperia neo v?? please reply soon.

  • Hi users of Optimus 2X.. Can any1 confirm usb otg on this device? I dont want to connect Usb mouse or key board (like Nokia E6 can) but if it can give access to just hard & flash drives i.e. Pen drive, card reader etc thn It vl b perfect for me.. Plz solve my this que.. Thanx a lot..

  • hi mandy31,it happened the same with me.. there is a bug from LG itself,i too upadated to 2.3 from 2.2 from LG tools so LG people said my IMEI number is not showing in their system,then they flashed my mobile.. after that also the situation is same.. so there is a bug in Optimus 2x 2.3 version. try to mail to LG India,so that they shud get this info directly from customers.

  • It was excatly the same with me. After update to 2.3 they software wouldnt recognize my phone as LG Software. Sometimes mistaken as a motorola software by other software. Need to go to the LG service centre to flash the device totally and reinstall the stock rom.

  • Ya, i is legal, i too hv updated my optimus one to android 2.3, and it is still in warranty

  • coz 2.3 has more updated files than android 2.2 but this is ur final partition even if you update it to 4.0,,,,

  • Thanks for the reply, but the lg service people telling that my cells imei no is not showing on their comp, before when i was using 2.2 i flashed twice then there was no problem with imei, but after updating to 2.3 the problem has started. i just want to know updating our self with their update tool is legal or not...?

  • its because when you upgrade to gingerbread it needs more ram so that from froyo to gingerbread the capacity of your ram decreases..to speed up the use of application..

  • The India tech center just didnt want to get blamed by you because of the hardware problem they have. So they blame you on the first hand to mess around with your phone which is legal. My suggestion is to ask them help you flash the phone and see if it able to run the original stock rom.

  • hey im hre in phlipnes pls help me iwnt to buy the optimus black or the 2x..but i have worrd bcuz i read a lot of prblem issue about of ths 2 hand set..pls tell me.. does optimus black and 2x operatng good hre in phlipnes..waitng for answr thx

  • whn i was on froyo 2.2 my free ram was near abt 250-260...bt whn i updated it to 2.3.4 gingerbread..ram reduced to only 200 mb free wht hapened...does smone hv this problem or notice it..

  • This is my phone, and I like it very much. The GPU is by far the best on the market (Followed closely by the Mali in the SGSII). The processor is a bit slow for the newer Android handsets (0.2 GHZ short) but it's not really that bad, since the GPU does most of the work (There is some basic GPGPU things). The design factor is comforting, and I love holding it in my hand, but the capacitive buttons need a bit harder press, with a thumb mostly. Not saying it's bad touch, it was probably made so you don't push it accidentaly. Battery is decent, especially with the update and some calibrations to the battery. Screen size is alright, would be better if it was larger though... Loudness is a bit down of what I'm use to (Full HD 3D Speakers) and the Audio Quality is very good. Screen is crisp and clear and looks very nice, not bright though, but it works good. The Galaxy R has more RAM and has a bigger screen size but a worse camera. I'm not sure what you like, but pick the one you want. They both have Tegra 2 anyway ;) Also, this has almost stock Gingerbread (Only a launcher and 2 apps are there which don't really distract you, you can easily remove the launcher)

  • hey when did u bought it and how was it performing....

  • which one is the best buy Galazy R or LG Optimus 2x? both are of same price....pls give ur opinion.

  • hi there u better go on lg optimus 2x very good phone:X ....

  • Hello can any one tell me which is one better LG optimus 2x or Samsung Galaxy R.and Samsung Galxy R and Galxy S

  • Hi, I too have the same comparison with this mobile with samsung galaxy R and S2, as this mob is very cheaper than both the mob's. Hence i just kept them both the mobiles side by side and found that the video clarity or camera clarity in R was much better than clarity in 2X and reg S2 i dont even need to say such a gr8 mob it is. I think samsung should have used corning glass in Galaxy R too. It was really pretty good with good battery performance, only one part i am lagging is the corning glass. Dont prefer LG as you dont have good sevice or else no resale value

  • lg optimus 2x its dual core

  • Wave 2 i guess for a better battery life and less lags

  • XDA developers is the place for optimus 2x i am on Cynogen Mod 7.1 nightly 204 android 2.3.7 on my Optimus 2x

  • I just got mine like a few hrs ago. i think we both seek the same features and qualities in phone. My only two comments are- pathetic batt life (6hrs) from 100% to less than 20%, the phone can heat up quite fast. the dual core is a big lure aka bigger catch. but android in general has inferior batt life ba. just saying my thoughts.

  • which one is a better phone, lg optimus 2x, or lg optimus black, or samsung s8530 wave II. Should i go for Samsung smart phones or LG smart phones?? The phone should have a good battery life and should not lag. please answer soon. thanks in advance.

  • Which phone is better: LG Optimus Black (LGP970) or Samsung S8530 WAVEII or LGP 990 optimus 2x. Should i go for Samsung or LG. My requirements are mainly browsing, pdf reading and occasional use of camera. please reply soon... Thanks in advance :)

  • i had purchased 2X 20 days back. its good with 2.2 android (took some time to explore it) but its best in 2.3 gingerbread update in 2.2 lagging issues were little present but in 2.3 it has been covered. list of enhancements did in 2.3 when compared to 2.2 are sms selection cursor is added suggested words were dissappearing while writing sms, it has been corrected. when screen ends it has been indicated with flashy color which is good looking battery life in 2G mode is improved but i havent checked it in 3G mode in new build 2.3(will be posting it once i do) performance and response time has been improved no lagging now and screen is good and bright. few extra live wallpapers and few new tunes are added rest all same as usual. i suggest my fellow 2X users to see and update as it is told in procedure. when updating please bind your hands and sit away from pc(make sure pc not going to sleep and no background program is running) my intention of saying this is very simple in words but very critical to phone updation. my friend was using his pc while update was running in background, suddenly his using application hanged and due to which pc got hanged, handset stopped updation and mobile just went blank in seconds. thats it.....! mobile is dead.he has taken to service centre. y do we require such a huge risk giving so much huge money. so please be careful....! note: stop all the running process,terminate all applications, run only lg software, back previous data(if you require),follow procedure, wait till it says update completed successfully. till then do not even try to touch the mouse or keyboard. few steps are very crucial so please read again and again,understand and then do it. "YOUR MISTAKE WILL RUIN YOUR OWN PHONE" AND IT REALLY HURTS....:-) MY UPDATE TO 2.3 GINGERBREAD IS BRILLIANT AND WORKING AWESOME. LG 2X P990 DUAL CORE IS BRILLIANT PHONE.

  • Hi Safii I completely agree with you but all i m concerned is about response time, hanging problem (if there is any with Android2.3) and overall software performance. Also can you please suggest a forum etc where i can read about the custom ROMs recommended for this phone instead of android 2.3 Thanks in advance

  • i love the display, it has total superiority over amoled. BUt the rest of the 2X is a sad story, cant find anything else good about it. Fair enough that it can play full HD video but with that battery life its not much use is it, this fone is no good if not near a charger, and android 2.3 is just as bad on this one as on any other brand or model. Android 2.3 deserves the first price for most unstable and malfunctioning OS ever on a mobile device, or any device. This is the Windows Vista of the mobile world, epic fail.

  • yes it runs 1080p

  • One guy wrote "The top edge is very sharp and after 3-5 minutes of phone calls I need to change side because my ear starts hurting". I think that you are just one "nothin' is good for me" motha.....r!

  • which is better samsung galaxy r or lg optimus 2x

  • 1.just type 'top free android applications' at google .. 2.u will not find any info abt best games so here as under:- 1.asphalt 6 2.fruit ninja 3.angry birds (al versions) 4.bruce lee-dragon wariors 5.zoombie infection 6.deathland(may b free) n many more u wil just be shocked.. (i have been falen to 60% marks in exams from 85% lol)

  • just waiting for the cm9 of O2X, ics on p990 should be pretty cool!

  • I m using last 8 months. my 2x is rocket. superb phone i love it video play beck is very good . i have to purchase one more. lg please give some color options.

  • Does 3G Video Calling work in this phone?

  • Lg Optimus 2x is the best and cheaper android phone in market today.. I've reviewed all the specs of different existing units and trademarks and decided that optimus 2x can perform better compared to other android phones.

  • ICS update is still long a way.May be in Q1 or early Q2 of 2012(as SE has announced that its flagship will be updated to ICS in Q1 of 2012).Better go for custom roms.

  • had the phone for 2 weeks now and had it upgraded to gingerbread upon purchase. awesome in gaming the tegra 2 chipset is just fantastic, fast performance, the ability to connect via hdmi makes the viewing of media better, it also makes gaming a pleasant experience when viewing on a bigger screen. text and images appear crisp, nice viewing angles and color reproduction on the display. not too bright to strain the eyes. nice feel to the phone, doesnt feel plasticky, it feels solid on the hand. nice complete phone.

  • the phone is not that back, actually it's pretty good, the 2.2 froyo doesn't fit well in it, so you guys really should try the CM7 or any custom roms. I was all "ohh this crappy phone, holy dual core, what the heck was that freezing etc etc" but now i`m all "wooow, we're almost flying o2x :) sweet mother of jesus"

  • optimus 2x will play choppy 1080p videos.U will not be able to enjoy it.So the best it can handle is 720p.

  • This phone is 2x the worst phone i ever use. even without using it overnite batt drain out very fast , and the phone hangs easily. internet search gets slower everytime u use it. not recomend to buy big regret.

  • HAI guys...i bought a 2x..overall its good..can anyone sugest some best free games as well as some apps.. thanx in advance

  • Any news when ICS releasing for Optimus 2x..?

  • I am using Optimus 2x for about 3 months and i am really happy with my phone.Obviously its better than Neo v that is single core,less mp camera,low internal storage,small screen as compared to Lg Optimus 2x.Now its upto you to choose b/w 2x or neo.If i were you i will go for 2x.

  • why is it my RAM's reading was only a total of 256? and i thought this handset's RAM is 512?

  • Hi, I want to buy a android phone. I am confused b/w two choices...xperia neo V and optimus 2x. optimus has superb hardware but i am not sure that its software is stable. Can someone give review about its touch response and does it fully utilizes the dual core, is it leggy and takes time to open apps etc. Basically i want to know how fast is it compared to neo V (about which i heard has good response time). I really wanted to go for it because of good hardware but again if software do not uses the hardware fully then there is no point of buying it. Thanks in advance

  • go for optimus 2x it got better looks than galaxy r....

  • Yes. 1080ps works out

  • i think that this is the best phone out there

  • What are you going to use a 1 GB ram for a phone for? even 256 MB can run windows xp

  • If I were U I would buy Galaxy R, It has got 1GB of RMA instead of 512 (actually 380) in 2x,

  • its play 1080 video or not plz tell me i want to buy this phone plz plz

  • i m confused with buyin samsung galaxy Ror lg optimus 2x??? plz help me out

  • Go lg 2x is one of the best gaming smartphone tegra2 chipset,IPSLCD superb bright excellent,jet speed browser super blazing fast excellent...

  • I've already upgraded my O2X to gingerbread v2.3.4.Now i'm very satisfied with this phone. It now becomes more stable, no lag at all, smooth, more responsive. The only i regret is about that RAM that still at 512mb, too little for a dual core phone and big memory, i think. And also about the battery life, when i used it for browsing or any internet activities, it drained so fast..other case its stand by time seems good enough..can i use any different battery (still LG genuine but different type)?

  • Thanks for your reply Swapnil. I have tried MObo player too, but still facing the same problem. Not able to enjoy 1080p videos on my mobile :(, is there any converter available in market? or any up-gradation is required. I'm using Android 2.3.4. Please help. Thanks in advance.

  • no doubt about it buy lg optimus it has all the capabilities as another high end (i.e. phones above 30K) handsets have go for it

  • 1) dual core cpu 2) 1080p video recording 3) touch bottons

  • heyyyyyy. sony ericsson xperia mini pro and neo v .. who is best plz rply.

  • Hey Thanks for the reply. but i already upgraded my phone from LG service center. they did the upgrade within 15 mins in front of me as they have 1 offline tool for software upgrade. So now onwards i will upgrade my o2x from service center only instead of doing online as it takes time and waste so much of time :)

  • Hello, I am looking to buy good Anroid phone to replace my obsolete Windows Mobile 6.5 phone. Samsung Galaxy S 2 is great but, unfortunately, out of my budget. From the most expensive to cheapest, Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc S, LG Optimus 2X, Sony Ericsson Xperia neo V, Sony Ericsson Xperia ray and Samsung I9000 Galaxy S are in my budget. Could you please tell me some reasons to choose LG Optimus 2X over the remaining? Thank you very much for your recommendation.

  • Hai guys..I bought a 2x after analysing 2x and ob..overall it is great.. can anyone please tell me some besr free android apps...any apps to improve batery life..Thanx in advance...

  • Use a different cable. Mine also stuck at 4%, i used a different cable ,and it worked perfectly

  • Hi, I share the problem with LG phone when there is no network connection. I encounter with my Optimus Black but I do not know about 2X. Mostly likely is the same.It is the design fault of the phone. If you do not key in the PIN of the SIM card, then the problem will be solve.

  • sir, does lg optimus 2x support mkv files without convert?

  • Can anyone suggest a video player in android that can take screenshots?? thanx in advance...

  • Problems with my front camera in video calls are past.it seems skype makes the problem not my android 2.2. i downloaded for free and installed TANGO app. and video calls are perfect. this app is extremely good...it is so good- just like red bull in energy drink industry :)))

  • I had the same problem before. Because i have upgrade my phone via PC (OTA) by myself, and it was stucked at 4% like you did (it cannot detect my usb conn). And if u cut off the usb connection, then ur phone get bricked. All u have to do is take ur phone to LG Center, to replace. There's nothing else u can do..

  • From all the user opinions these are the disads I came to know ,any users kindly answer all the questions ! 1.Dual core is not used by any android app ? 2.Head Set is quality is low ? 3.GPS not working fine ? 4.But now the price has smashed to 20 k from 26k ,so shall i prefer 2x instead of paying 18 k for Optimus black ?

  • Where will you get google nexus for 20k in India ?

  • Hi Tushar, You can try using Mobo Player once, i'm using this player with my optimus one P500 phone and it works very smooth. It has feature of Soft decoding for high defination videos if they don't play, or they skip automatically.

  • Hi some videos which u ve downloaded will be in mp4a format which this phone cannot play, full hd resolution means 1080x1920 but some videos will ve 1085x1920 like so it cannot be played, so download video converter and select video format as mp4 and check the resolution it must be 1920x1080, or u can convert it into xvid avi format u get better picture and audio quality than mp4. The best video converter is total video converter u can download from the net.

  • @Mac1977 1. Sometimes, it won't ask for a PIN code, it'll start right up. Config problem. Easy fix. 2. it can't connect to the network when booting and needs a second reboot. Phone company problem. 3. Mail works well one day, badly the next. Remote mail server (POP3/IMAP4) problem. Easy fix. 4. The top edge is very sharp and after 3-5 minutes of phone calls I need to change side because my ear starts hurting. LOL. 5. The ear speaker is poor and caller's voice is unclear. Baseband problem. Easy fix via update. 6. The massive screen consumes A LOT of energy Shutdown useless apps. Spare battery. 7. Think twice before you buy this brick. ROTFLMAO.

  • is this phone upgradeable to android 4.0? and is battery life really bad?

  • i am facing battery backup problem

  • Where did you get 2.3.5? mine 2.3.4 not 2.3.5

  • I have problem installing android 2.3.4 I start update and it stop on 4% I do all and it do not work. Please tell me what I need to do? Thank you.

  • Great super fast phone.So far it seems a lot better than my old 3gs.

  • Hi Safii, Thanks for your reply. I already tried 4 times by removing the battery and connect->then restarting the updation process as directed by the LG software tool message. But every time it stucks @ 4% :(. So do i need to do anything else like uninstalling and again installing the LG update tool and/or drivers etc???

  • Sure.. Plug your phone off and then plug it again and let the Lg software update software restart again,it will not stuck anymore.That was in my case.Not sure whether it will work with you or not.

  • I bought this phone 5 months back and i never faced any random rebooting issues except for the wifi issue. But after upgrading to Ginger bread (2.3.4) the wifi seems to be fixed and it is also quite fast now. I am getting around 3.5 to 4 days of normal usage which is good. I am waiting for Android 4.0 hopefully it will come by next year. Those who are facing battery issue can try this link

  • I got this as a work phone (running 2.3.4) and I'm very displeased with it. Various glitches and other things that being bothering me. Sometimes, it won't ask for a PIN code, it'll start right up. Others, it can't connect to the network when booting and needs a second reboot. Mail works well one day, badly the next. The top edge is very sharp and after 3-5 minutes of phone calls I need to change side because my ear starts hurting. The ear speaker is poor and caller's voice is unclear. The massive screen consumes A LOT of energy and even though on stand-by I can get 2 days, when browsing you get an hour and a half maximum before it starts complaining. If I didn't already own a HTC Desire, I'd think that Android is hopeless. But I don't feel the dual core power in everyday use and HTC's build quality and ergonomics are miles in front of LG. Think twice before you buy this brick.

  • I bought this phone from Saint Laurent Shapping Mall in Ottawa from the Rep of Wind who is selling LG smatphone. My experience is a terrible one. Just after 4weeks the phone was shuting down repeatedly without reason, so I brought it back to the vendor who said it was scratched and he can't help me with replacing the phone nor fixing it. I ask for the name of the manager of that Kiosk and it was SAM only no family name available! I am left with a disfunction phone and I paid 380.$ and still paying for the monthly useage... I call the customer service and they refered me to go back to that specific kiosk of Wind who don't want to deal with this issue due to a scratched on the phone.....My freind has return a broken Iphone in two pieces to apple and had no problems in replacing it....Should you buy these type of phones and take a high with no services after sales. I don't recommend these phone until the LG company take their responsability and choose who is their dealers.

  • i live in india after 1 month buying dis phone for 24000 i came to know dat it is now for 19990 only...i dont know whether it is true or not, i checked in on a site www.mysmartprice.com/mobile/lg-optimus-2x-p990-m­sp1121. if it is true den dis is d best and the cheapest dual core phone u will get.....muvh better than galaxy s2 for 27000...better go for lg if u wanna use it for atleast 2 yrs or more bcoz its resale value is nothing... m getting only 15000 for my one month 2x....so think and buy....!!!!!

  • thanks. i tried that but uninstall button is grayed out. bought my cp in another country. it has pre installed apps in their language that i do not understand. i want to get rid of those.. hope you could help me..

  • Hi Safii, Actually i am also facing the same problem as you were facing :( It stucks during upgrading, exactly at 4% :( So can you or anyone in this forum please tell me how to fix this issue??? Thanks in adv :)

  • manage application->download->choose appliaction you want to delete and click uninstall...

  • I've owned this for a few days now and upgraded to official Gingerbread 2.3.4. The phone works flawlessly and I've never had any problem with it. The battery is a little on the low side but still holds up great.

  • I have an LG Optimus 2x and it works flawless after last update from LG site. Probably you wont notice much difference if you buy a samsungs glaxy s2, unless you use top apps like very complex Adobe Flash Apps wich eat all available RAM where extra memory samsung has (1g vs 512mb) would make difference.

  • how do i delete pre installed applications?

  • Format your micro sd. That should do it...

  • Which is better Samsung galaxy r or lg Optimus 2x

  • 1. You can make video call(with the front facing camera) 2. Thare is a video camera 3. About the lag...... You have to be verry carefull not to put any aplications with virus. By the way i dont have much apps on my phone it's not laggy at all. :))) GR8 phone!!!

  • hey can you give ans of my three question 1.can we do video call 2.it's have video light or not 3.it's laggy phone

  • just done factory reset but micro sc card still not working.. waste of apps and messeges..:(

  • @Einstelluungen I agreed with you, this is the best smartphone... @asd reboot issue only US version LG 2x p999.. P990 star,speed no reboot issued.

  • one great thing about this phone is the HDMI port and onscreen feature, which enables me to make presentation using my phone

  • download LG PC Suite and installed it to your PC It will synch all your contact, notes, message, schedule, photo, music, video you can restore it to your phone.

  • I'm using thisphone since it got realised. Maby i was one of te first ones who bought this phone. I have no problems since than. I do not charge it verry often, maby on every 3 day cos i installed the Energy Booster from Android.com. The phone makes perfect pictures, it's fast, lot of internal memory, it's gr8. I'm impressed. For me this is the worls's best smartphone. I don't know why you 're disapointed??????

  • Thanks Buddy..

  • Yes you can do video call using skype with both front and back cameras.

  • Guys those who have updated to 2.3.4..Can you reply whether you are able to vide chat using skype or Google??? Please reply.. i am planning to buy this soon..

  • Does Optimus 2x still have reboot issue and freeze after update to Gingerbread?I want to buy it, but I afraid it has reboot issue.Does the reboot issue happen to all user?

  • Last thing i want to ask.It will also erase messages and my contacts?

  • Cons, lots of it: 1. Battery issue 2. software support issue 3. hardware issue 4. random reboot 5. sound quality 6. picture quality pros 1. come with unmodified stock rom unlike SG 2 2. update improve many bugs and battery issues 3. once you get the correct setup this phone is a beast. i think so, this phone is very good, but lack of product support from LG so you should learn your self on the tid bits of using android phone. Even that i have flashed the phone many times due to crashing and other bug problem, i really like this phone compared to SG2.

  • Yes factory setting is hard reset or you could press power and lower volume button for 10 seconds while start up

  • I lost all my saved games, Smurf Village, Galaxy on Fire 2, Big Time Gangsta, Contract Killer, Cut The Rope, etc... all of it.

  • Hard reset means factory reset ? settings>privacy>factory data reset.Is this the procedure ???

  • Battery life is much improved that on froyo.. but i still sucks with having live wallpapers.

  • there is lot of issues with the battery of 2x. has the battery life improved with GB in particular?

  • O no man.. It will erase all apps? :( My angry birds data will also be removed..:(

  • Its a common problem since tere a lot of incompatible apps in your phone, do a hard reset and it will go smooth. You know the consequences of hard reset do you? it will erase all of your apps to factory setting. so it will be brand new 2.3.4

  • updated to 2.3.4 and it's working very fast. awesome phone

  • Christian if you buy it first tel me how is it going, if i buy it first i'll tell you ok?

  • Thanks LG i just upgraded my phone to 2.3.4.But i didn't feel much difference.But i am facing a new problem i-e micro sd slot is not working.Whenever i put any card it shows unavailable. What is this guys ?

  • hi, im goin to get 2X this week can ny one mention the pros and cons of the piece.... plz..

  • I'm from Macedonia too and want to buy it also on contract (VIP). Everybody says that this phone is perfect and i agree. 1Ghz Dual Core procesor, 8 mgpx camera, 8gb storage plus micro sd card what do you need more... Masina e telefonov bate sigurno go zemam... POZZZZZ!!!!! :)))))

  • Nice device good feturce

  • all of them on 2.3.4 People in case you have not heard all 2x's parts with tegra's source code is now released from lg and nvidia to cyanogen and other devs.This means tha we might get a stable ice cream with smooth UI menu and browser like gs2 thanks to developer work!

  • it's a great phone, but it's not a gsm, at least battery only last's 24 hours without calls or toutching it too much, it was not a good deal, i have to charge it all days .

  • I just bought this phone for 2 weeks. It's quite disappointing, not because the phone itself, but because LG' poor support on software, the UI is laggy, GPS not working properly, and it runs 3d games with horrible stutter, I believe it's not tegra 2 isn't capable to handle the game, but because LG' android release. after upgrade to 2.3.4, it's better, but still not good enough, especially the GPS, I haven't managed to lock to any satellite even once. anyone with same problem? (laggy 3d game and gps)

  • I just bought this phone for 2 weeks, it seems that LG do not supply this phone with good software, it's very buggy. but after upgrade to 2.3.4, it's better, but still not good enough. shame on you LG, ruining a good phone with abysmal software... have anyone experience problem with the GPS? I can't managed to lock to any satelites even once...

  • Still waiting for GB update in Pakistan.

  • Keep on dreaming pal:)

  • i got 2.3.4 gb in india thanks lg

  • best phone i've ever owned :)

  • buy it really worth it...

  • hi guys i want buy dis fone so plz help me wether i should buy it r nt plzzzzz help me guys thank u ......

  • I agree that the audio in 2x is horrible. However, there's a work around. Install Equalizer from the market place (free version is enough) and enable the equalizer (set to normal or rock etc). This will greatly improve the audio :)

  • 7 Hours, no touch. don't buy

  • for my exp, when im only using the GSM network on this phone actually could last about 2 days,almost..without charging the battery..but at first couple of weeks after bought this O2X, the most common problem among O2X users is that it would actually switching off by itself.but then again,i still believe this matter will solved by itself and it does..so now, after a few SW upgrade and currently having the 2.3 gb this phone is awesome..

  • well built smartphone. just glad to hear that LG will give this O2X the ICS...in the future.

  • Damn this phone is a beast overclocked- in youtube you can see 1.4 GHz Optomus 2X doing over 5000 at Quadrant.

  • You need Android ver. 2.3.4. :) It's available for all languages.

  • Hey There Guys I Am Very Much Confused About The Lg Optimus 2x and SE Xperia Arc Which one Should I go For Both Are Good At their best so wat to do guys olz help me plzzzzzzzz

  • i just upgraded my 2x to gb and its working very good...the same issue i am facing is tha battery but after ignoring that one......it's just amazing.........

  • I would recommend you to stay away from the O2X if you love music. The audio quality is average and the battery won't last long (5-6 hours of MP3 at 128 kbps and you're dead). I know this 'cause I had the phone (upgraded to LG's Official Android 2.3.4) but the problems I had were too much to bear. The dual core is an advantage, but if the thing you want the most is music and you don't plan to play games, the Tegra 2 is futile. There aren't many apps to take advantage of the dual core in android. Since you're a music lover, I suggest you to try single core phones with good battery backup (at least 1650 mAh). There many good ones around that will please you ears and are cheaper.
